It all started with a poster.
United Against Hate Week (Sep. 21-27, 2024) is a call for local civic action to stop the hate and implicit biases that are a dangerous threat to the safety and civility of our neighborhoods, towns, and cities.
United Against Hate Week emerged from a United Against Hate poster campaign created by Bay Area Cities in response to white supremacist rallies in Berkeley and San Francisco in 2017.
The original 13 communities were convened in 2018 by Not In Our Town, a national anti-hate organization and partner in the LA vs Hate campaign, and committed to an annual week of action and awareness.
Since its inception, United Against Hate Week has spread to over 200+ communities including all of Los Angeles County, faith-based groups, LGBTQ, and human rights organizations, and is beginning to take off throughout California and in communities across the U.S.
Berkeley based visual artist, Lena Wolff created the original poster with the help of Lexi Visco. Since their release the posters have been printed over 200,000 times for multiple cities. Editions of the posters are now in the permanent collections of the San Francsico Museum of Modern Art and the Oakland Museum of California.
