The Southern Poverty Law Center, an IRS designated charity with almost a billion dollars in “reserves,” laid off a quarter of its staff. In a scathing rebuke from the SPLC Union that represents staff with the charity, the organization was slammed for the decision, which they say will have “a catastrophic impact” on the work done by the SPLC.
While the union lists immigration justice and the “mission to dismantle white supremacy,” the SPLC also has expanded their “hate watch” map to include parents rights groups Christian and religious groups, critics of child sex changes, and others who do not toe the line of progressive ideology. The SPLC’s list includes medical organizations Do No Harm, Genspect, Partners for Ethical Care, and the Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine, placing them alongside recognized white supremacy organizations including KKK chapters.
The union worries that with these staff cuts, the efforts of the SPLC to “strengthen intersectional movements and advance human rights through support of educators” will be undermined.
SPLC’s decision has a catastrophic impact on the organization’s work in support of immigrants seeking justice and its mission to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements and advance human rights through support of educators.
