"Stopping the Hate with Harmony"
Award-winning videotape PLUS training guide with Q&A, exercises and step-by-step guidance for trainers.

  • In what ways do bias and hate appear in Pennsylvania's schools and communities?
  • Unlawful discrimination. Organized hate groups. Hate Crimes. What can concerned citizens do that will really make a difference?


This award-winning, 26-minute video developed by the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission focuses on the full range of bias-related incidents that occur in Pennsylvania's schools and communities.

Viewers are challenged to realize that attitudes and stereotypes reflected in everyday social interactions form a foundation for tensions that can erupt in public settings; organized hate group activity; unlawful discrimination; and even hate crimes. Effective models of prevention and response already existing in Pennsylvania schools and communities are highlighted.


"The Four R's: Reading, 'Riting, 'Rithmatic & Respect"
Videotape PLUS training guide with Q&A, exercises and step-by-step guidance for trainers.

  • What is happening in our schools today?
  • Are our schools places where everyone is safe and respected?
  • Are we afraid of our differences, or do we celebrate and learn from them?


In response to an increased interest in violence prevention and school safety, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission produced this 27-minute videotape that focuses on bias-related incidents in our elementary and secondary schools.

The video presents a series of "lessons" and "assignments," including commentary from expert professionals and highlighting model approaches that have proven successful in some Pennsylvania schools. Best used with administrators, teachers, staff and parents.
