Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Gene Collier: After the trial, hope: A report from the Eradicate Hate Global Summit

Oct 1, 2023 | Featured Home Page

“The flashpoints in his memory are of blood in the snow, of the bare footprints of the panicked as they fled a fusillade, and of that 6-year-old girl, frozen in panic in the moment the assault rifle was turned on her.

I was listening to Mohammed Hashim…” Read Gene Collier’s report from the Summit.

This cannot be thought of as a conference or a summit. The stakes are simply too high and the data/conversation and methods to drive action more valuable/motivating than any gathering I have attended. I took more than 100 pages of notes and have shared them with my CBS News leadership team, anchors, producers, and correspondents. Nothing about this gathering was easy. The agony around this topic is real. But no one curious about it could ask for a more devoted, rational, or unflinching look into this dark but decipherable world.
