Monday, the FBI’s Dallas field office will launch a large-scale hate crime awareness campaign to shine a light onto the national issue and encourage communities to come forward and report hate crimes.
It’s a part of a nationwide initiative launched by the FBI I 2021.
Advertising will appear at Dallas Love Field, Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, area gas stations, digital billboards, on AM and FM radio and mobile/digital/web mediums.
There are also two large murals in Dallas.
