Statement on Efforts to Promote Diversity and Eliminate Hazing in the Armed Forces
In our ongoing fight against bigotry and the hate crimes it breeds, we at AAJC monitor federal hate crimes legislation and push for tougher laws to ensure justice for these heinous acts. We are very proud to note that after more than 10 years, comprehensive federal hate crime legislation has been passed this year and is now law. Although theHate Crimes Prevention Act has been enacted, there is still much work to be done, and AAJC remains vigilant to all forms of hate in our communities.
By holding radio and television personalities accountable for racist language to the highest level, meanwhile, we are also fomenting an atmosphere of increased tolerance within the public domain. Regrettably, we must remain attentive on all these fronts; racist attitudes and language are all too common - much to the detriment of our multicultural society.
