Southern Poverty Law Center: Intelligence Project
http://www.splcenter.org/intel/intpro.jsp

The Southern Poverty Law Center has been monitoring the activities of hate groups and extremist activities since 1981. Today, their Intelligence Project continues to track over 800 hate groups across the United States.

First-time visitors to the site can look over the "Top Hatewatch Headlines", which offer brief synopses of current activities within the various groups.

From there, visitors will want to visit the "Intelligence Report" section. Here, they will find the current issue of this magazine, which frequently includes guest editorials, interviews with former hate group members and leaders, and information about how the Center is combating these different groups and their activities.

Additionally, the site also includes an interactive map of active hate groups in the United States.
