Hate Crimes in the U.S.: What Lt. Richard Collins III Can Teach Us About History, Hope and Healing

Rooted in the tragic murder of Lt. Richard W. Collins III, a Bowie State student on the campus of the University of Maryland by a white supremacist student, this course will provide an overview and discussion of the history of bias-motivated violence in the United States, the development of modern hate crime laws, theories and impacts of victimization, domestic terrorism, legal and social responses, and prevention strategies. Students from both Bowie State University and the University of Maryland will engage with experts from multiple disciplines and work together in a collaborative community to generate actionable strategies.
