Using litigation, education, and other forms of advocacy, the SPLC works toward the day when the ideals of equal justice and equal opportunity will be a reality. As an internationally renowned civil rights organization, the SPLC has dedicated the last 49 years to uprooting bigotry from America's institutions and to dismantling all forms of structural racism that marginalize communities of color. We've won multimillion-dollar lawsuits, bankrupting hate groups like the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, formerly one of America's most notorious white supremacist organizations. Our work has directly impacted the lives of millions of people, including immigrants unjustly held in prison-like detention facilities, Black and disabled children who were barred from receiving an equitable education, formerly incarcerated Floridians who were disenfranchised by unconstitutional state laws, and many, many more.
