Our community leaders often say: an act of hate towards any one community is an act of hate towards all.
As upstanders in our community, we assert that Cincinnati is no place for hate. With the re-emergence of white supremacy in the wake of the 2016 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Cincinnatians came together and formed the Cincinnati Regional Coalition Against Hate (CRCAH). With rising division across our nation, it became critical to mobilize. Nineteen founding organizations created this non-partisan coalition; an allyship committed to vigilance against hate activity by supporting impacted communities and fostering acceptance, compassion, and justice for all across Greater Cincinnati. Today, there are more than 40 partner organizations working together to educate the community and monitor incidents of hate in our community. Our rapid response model allows us to effectively respond to hate activity within 24 hours by leveraging a diverse network as the connective tissue between communities thereby providing key resources specific to any particular community. Whether incidents occur on the street, in the workplace, or at school, CRCAH is able to tap into community leaders as needed.
As of January, the Coalition now operates under the umbrella of the Holocaust and Humanity Center (HHC) as its convening organization. As such, we have a new home at Cincinnati’s historic Union Terminal, one of our city’s greatest symbols of an America for all. With a focus on the Humanity Gallery and community education, HHC is perfectly suited to help push the work of CRCAH forward. We are now expanding the team and seeking to fill the new position of CRCAH Program Manager. We are seeking a fellow upstander who shares a passion for our mission: a belief in denouncing hate and promoting tolerance by working collaboratively with people of all identities. Such an individual would have leadership experience in nonprofit settings and excited to continue our work to ensure that this is no place for hate.
