History of Hate Crimes
Hate crimes date back all the way to ancient civilizations. What is thought to be one of the very first incidents is in Rome. When Emperor Nero thought he was being blamed for a fire that burned down most of Rome, he shifted the hate towards the Christians. All the Romans then turned against the people of Christian faith. Another example of a notorious hate crime would be the Holocaust. Hitler hated all jews and ordered them to concentration camps for death.Those are what they believe to be the first hate crimes. Everyday smaller scale hate crimes occur as they increase and decrease in frequency throughout the years,
The mission of Bringing Awareness to Hate Crimes is to bring people of all cultures and races together to support each other. We also try to bring resources to people to better educate them on what's really going on.
