Race & Community Relations


 

Featured below are Palmetto Project links to sites dealing with race relations in South Carolina and throughout the United States. We intend to grow this as an online resource center to be used by all South Carolinians to promote education and understanding.

Southern Poverty
Law Resource
The Southern Poverty Law Resource Center is a non-profit organization that combats hate,

intolerance and discrimination through education and litigation. In response to an alarming increase in hate crime among youth, the Southern Poverty Law Center began the Teaching Tolerance project in 1991 as an extension of the Center's legal and educational efforts. Through the generous support of Center donors, Teaching Tolerance offers free or low-cost resources to educators at all levels.
 

  One America
This Initiative is a critical element in the President's effort to prepare our country to live as one America in the 21st century. He envisions an America based on opportunity for all, responsibility from all, and one community of all Americans. The President recognizes that, even as America rapidly becomes the world's first truly multi-racial democracy, race relations remains an issue that too often divides our nation and keeps the American dream from being real for everyone who works for it.
