      The category of hate is “other.” And they provide 0 elaboration of why it’s a hateful group.

      Maybe it's their extremist hatred of slave owners:

      SPLC

      As far as I know - their process to determine what is and what is not a hate group is totally opaque.

      My ~30 seconds of research lead me to this true gem about one of the founders. Emphasis mine...

      Morris Dees

      On 14 March 2019 the SPLC announced that Dees had been fired from the organization and the SPLC would hire an "outside organization" to assess the SPLC's workplace climate. Former employees alleged that Dees was "complicit" in harassment and racial discrimination, and said that at least one female employee had accused him of sexual harassment.

      I wonder how much the people at the top pay themselves a year for their good works.

      SPLC has them designated as a black separatist org.

      I checked their website, can't find any NOI stuff or anything like that
