At the United We Stand Summit, President Biden announced the launch of an initiative to counter hate-fueled violence and domestic terrorism.
A rising tide of hate-fueled violence in America is causing unspeakable loss, pain and grief. Americans are living in fear when they pray, work, learn, vote, and more.Dignity.us is a citizens’ initiative to address this crisis together, and we’d like to invite you to be part of it by sharing your ideas, testimonials, and suggestions for people we should learn from most. Our purpose is not to reinvent wheels. It is to uncover the hope already being produced.
And we will ensure that this input comes from Americans of every region, race, faith, ethnicity and ideology – and spans those who have suffered the effects of this violence; researchers and experts who who have studied the problem; social innovators and advocates leading the way with bold and tested ideas; philanthropists committed to allocating resources to their implementation and scale; and those who have left groups affiliated with hatred and violence and become a part of the solution.
We understand this effort comes at a time of cynicism about America’s ability to confront its largest challenges. But we also know that Americans of goodwill are already working to prove it’s possible in this case.Our best hope lies in tapping their ingenuity, supercharging their successes, and building our shared future on what Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called “the solid rock of human dignity.”
If you would like to join us on this journey, consider this your invitation to begin. Share your ideas, stories, and nominations in the form above. Sign up for our mailing list or write to us directly using the links below. And whatever you do, choose hope over hate.
