Today it keeps tabs on more than 500 white supremacists, anti-government and other hate groups in the United States. In Texas, Klanwatch monitors 18 groups, including the Knights of the White Kamellia and World Church of the Creator in Austin, the National Alliance and United Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and National Alliance in Fort Worth and the Texas Aryan Nationalist Skinheads in Baytown. The monitoring task forces provide updates to law enforcement agencies and the news media. Certainly we are not born that way. It seems that in the United States, there is always some group to hate.
Some folks hate blacks.
Some people hate the Jewish community. Some people hate women. It seems as if we are always trying to get in touch with our inner racist. Education is the key. The most productive work of the SPLC is educating young people in a national tolerance education program.
