Southern Poverty Law Center dismisses co-founder Morris Dees

Dees' termination was effective on Wednesday. The Alabama-based nonprofit activist group is known for tracking civil rights and hate crimes in the United States.SPLC President Richard Cohen did not cite a specific reason for Dees' dismissal but noted in a statement released Thursday that the organization"is committed to ensuring that the conduct of our staff reflects the mission of the organization and the values we hope to instill in the world.

"It's a very fine group. I've devoted 50 years of my life to the center. I wish them the very best," Dees said.He would not elaborate on how he learned about his dismissal or the reasoning behind it. He only said that he"can let life's work and reputation speak for itself."In the past few years, Dees said, he mostly went to the center to make calls to big donors. He is now looking forward to spending time with his great-grandchildren.

Sources everywhere and acts like it has no info on why Dees was fired.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is a sick joke.

It was a long time coming.

Wow

Still does not absolve them or lend credibility to their organization, they've known this for years.

The southern poverty law center cannot be trusted in my opinion

Of course, far left Southern Poverty Law Center will detest white race and no other. SPLC as receiver of charity on Amazon Smile removes competing church charity on Amazon. SPLC cause of divide and the enemy of America.

If he had anything to do with the ignorant slander against MaajidNawaz then this is a very good thing 🥳

I thought he retired...

One last honest person

Sounds like they hate him .
