SPLC report on hate crimes on Long Island

September

The Southern Poverty Law Center says it will release a report Wednesday examining “violent, anti-immigrant climate” in Suffolk County.

The report, entitled “Climate of Fear: Latino Immigrants in Suffolk County, N.Y.,” documents numerous hate crimes committed against Hispanics and a volatile environment created, in some instances, by community leaders. Researchers for the Center spent months interviewing immigrants, religious figures and business owners.

A bilingual hotline has been set up—800-328-2322—to report crimes committed on Long Island against Hispanics.
