The campaign started with the special "Erase the Hate," an award-winning documentary designed to teach how to end hate in one's community. In the past year, the campaign has included the special "Healing the Hate" series of public service announcements, installments in programming and participation in an unprecedented cooperative effort by 48 cable networks and organizations such as the Children's Defense Fund and the National Council of Churches. The effort has grown and become incorporated into educational programs throughout the country. To date, thousands of copies of "Healing the Hate" have been distributed to schools, churches, YWCA programs and anti-hate organizations. And additional plans are underway for even more extensive distribution of video cassettes and teacher's guides through "Cable in the Classroom," the cable industry's educational programming arm, which will again participate in this campaign.
