A photo by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for an initiative called “No Place for Hate” has been altered to replace the word “hate” with “whites,” yet some online posts share the edited photo alongside calls to ban the nonprofit.
ADL created the “No Place for Hate” initiative to provide schools and communities with a framework for combating bias, bullying and hatred.
A post on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter, said: “Why does the ADL promote this overt anti-White hatred and bigotry?
The photo shows four people holding balloons that read: “NO place for WHITES.”Another example on Facebook said, in part, “The ADL is an anti white hate group” and calls for a ban on the ADL (here).
The signage on the balloons read: “NO place for HATE.”A cropped version of the photo can also be seen on a page dedicated to the initiative on the ADL website with the same “NO place for HATE” wording (www.noplaceforhate.org/why).
