About
The Horowitz Network is an informal coalition of donors and funding channels closely associated with conservative activist and author David Horowitz, primarily operating through his David Horowitz Freedom Center (DHFC), a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing right-wing ideologies. This network provides funding to organizations like the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) as part of its broader mission to support anti-leftist and anti-Islam initiatives. The network's activities focus on countering perceived liberal biases in academia, media, and politics through philanthropy that funds publications, campus activism, and legal defenses for conservative causes. Critics have accused the network of promoting hate speech and Islamophobia, linking it to broader networks of far-right funding.
