# Introduction
The Amharic Hate Speech data is collected using the Twitter API spanning from October 1, 2020 - November 30, 2022, considering the socio-political dynamics of Ethiopia in Twitter space. We used [WEbAnno](http://ltdemos.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/codebookanno-cba/) tool for data annotation; each tweet is annotated by two native speakers and curated by one more experienced adjudicator to determine the gold labels. A total of 15.1k tweets consisting of three class labels namely: Hate, Offensive and Normal are presented. Read our papers for more details about the dataset (see below).
