Many teachers often would like to skip teaching students about alt-right and hate groups as the topics have become a “too-hot-to-touch” category. Though teachers are becoming afraid to teach about these groups, there is a lot of resources to help teachers in their classroom. People such as Maureen Costello who is the director of the Teaching Tolerance project offer educational resources about race and prejudice topics on her project website ( https://www.learningforjustice.org/). Students need to be taught about extremists and hate groups in order for them to learn how to think critically about these groups and how to avoid getting caught up in groups. Today teachers can be a part of the frontline in educating students who are being swayed from what they see on social media by people who target the younger generation, people such as the leader of the Al-right group Richard Spencer.
