Governor Hochul Launches “Call Out Hate” Campaign

Call Out Hate Public Information Campaign 

Public Information Campaign Reiterates Commitment To Combat Hate and Bias as Well as Support Communities Impacted by Discrimination

New Yorkers Impacted by Hate or Bias Can Call 844-NO-2-HATE or Use an Online Reporting Form To Report Incidents to the Hate and Bias Prevention Unit

The Division of Human Rights Condemns All Forms of Hate, Encourages New Yorkers To Contact the Hate and Bias Prevention Unit To Report Incidents and Request Support

Governor Kathy Hochul, in conjunction with the New York State Division of Human Rights’ Hate and Bias Prevention Unit, announced a public information campaign to educate New Yorkers about the support available in combating hate and bias in communities across New York State, as well as the importance of reporting such incidents when they occur. The campaign, entitled “Call Out Hate,” will be featured in the coming months in the New York City Subway, Metro-North and Long Island Rail Road train cars and transit stations. It will also be included in statewide Division educational events reminding New Yorkers that hate has no home in New York, and that we all belong here.

“Hate has no place in New York State, and it is critical that we come together to prevent any person from enduring discrimination or feeling endangered because of hateful rhetoric or acts,” Governor Hochul said. “We must ‘Call Out Hate’ wherever we see it, and in doing so, we will empower our communities to protect each other and find commonality in our differences.”
