summary
A list of hate crime hoaxes at campuses, including the Kerri Dunn racism case, with an explanation of why.
"A person who is a victim of a hate crime can probably expect to get almost universal sympathy on a college campus. Out in the world at large, that's not necessarily true," said Mark Potok, who has researched hate crime for the Southern Poverty Law Center.
"But on a college campus, you are very likely to get the support of the administration, the faculty and virtually all the students. It tends to put you in the limelight very quickly."
Mark Potok has "researched" hate crime. That's what it says. See also http://fakehatecrimes.org/media/201
