hate has no place on metro
Public transportation should be safe and accessible for all LA County residents. If you witness or are targeted for hate, discrimination, verbal abuse or violence because of your actual or perceived identity please report it with 211LA using the links below.
Those who report will be connected with a care coordinator to navigate the next steps following a hate incident including accessing legal, financial, mental health and mediation services and resources. Reporting is not associated with law enforcement and can be completed anonymously regardless of immigration status.
Stop hate. vote.
Election years often see an increase in divisive rhetoric that can lead to community tension and even violence. Therefore, this fall, our creative campaign ‘Stop Hate. Vote’ reminds LA County residents to practice civility and mutual respect. Everyone should consider how their vote is a tool in the fight against hate and discrimination. When we work together against hate, we can restore civil discourse, embrace the strength of diversity, and build inclusive and equitable communities for all.
LA MEtro: Anti-Hate Collaborative
Together, we can combat hate on transit and help riders and staff learn how to report acts of hate and to get support. Importantly, the campaign will emphasize the ways in which transit brings us all together. Transit enables us to connect across different communities, and we want to celebrate the ways in which we stand up for each other across our region.
