United Against Hate Week 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. It 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.
Redwood City stands united against hate, and we hope you will too. Join us by displaying a poster, available at all Library locations, or attending one of our events. This year's events will span across November 12-18. Scan the QR code in the flyer to learn more!
