Origins of Racism...

There is a lot going on in the Carlisle and Greater Carlisle area in terms of anti-racism. Organizations such as the YWCA Social Justice Committee and AMANI have been formed in response to racist activity in the community, such as visits by the KKK and the Westboro Baptist Church. Other nationally recognized organizations, such as the NAACP have formed branches in the Greater Carlisle and Greater Harrisburg area.
