Recent shocking incidents have revealed a disturbing trend of racist text messages targeting teens across the U.S., with reports of messages so vile they echo pre-Civil Rights era bigotry. The messages primarily target Black, Hispanic, and LGBTQIA+ teenagers and college students and include threats linked to hateful ideologies – horrific statements about being taken to plantations or deported. Without accountability, these threats could escalate into physical violence.
Sign the petition to demand the FBI find the people responsible for these messages and charge them with hate crimes and child harassment.
This isn't just about offensive messages; it's a direct attack on the safety and mental well-being of marginalized children. The specific targeting of Black, Hispanic, and LGBTQIA+ individuals with threats of deportation and violence makes it clear these are intentional hate crimes.
With Donald Trump elected president, bigots may feel emboldened to perpetuate and act on racism and hate. It's crucial to stand together now to advocate for environments where everyone feels safe and valued, ensuring that these dangerous sentiments have no place in society.
Sign the petition to demand a full investigation by the FBI to find and prosecute the individuals or groups responsible!
