### Dataset Summary

These files contain text extracted from Stormfront, a white supremacist forum. A random set of forums posts have been sampled from 
several subforums and split into sentences. Those sentences have been manually labelled as containing hate speech or not, according 
to certain annotation guidelines.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

### Data Fields

- text: the provided sentence
- user_id: information to make it possible to re-build the conversations these sentences belong to
- subforum_id: information to make it possible to re-build the conversations these sentences belong to
- num_contexts: number of previous posts the annotator had to read before making a decision over the category of the sentence
- label: hate, noHate, relation (sentence in the post doesn't contain hate speech on their own, but combination of serveral sentences does) 
         or idk/skip (sentences that are not written in English or that don't contain information as to be classified into hate or noHate)
