According to the U.S. Department of  Justice website, "In the simplest terms, a hate crime must include both  'hate' and a 'crime.' With Islamophobia, antisemitism, anti-Arab, anti-Asian, and race crimes on the rise, we need to learn our options if faced with an issue.

The state of Indiana has no comprehensive hate crimes law. However, there are ways to use federal hate crimes statutes to prosecute crimes the state cannot. Join us for a presentation by Zachary A. Myers, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana, Assistant United States Attorneys who focus on Civil Rights, and the local FBI.
