The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is very concerned about the increase of anti-Semitic and racist material on the Internet. Children who explore the Internet, whether visiting Web sites, reading E-mail messages, or conversing in chat rooms, run the risk of encountering hate propaganda. Many hate groups specifically target the young, and hateful messages can deeply influence and affect our children.

ADL's new report on Internet bigotry, Poisoning the Web: Hatred Online, presents an up-to-date, in-depth look at the growing presence of hateful groups and individuals on the Internet. ADL encourages parents to help their children deal with online hate through discussion and education.
