Ron Lora: Anti-Asian American bias is integral to American history Ron Lora - Guest Columnist The deadly shootings at Atlanta-area spas last month that killed eight persons, including six Asian American women, drew national attention to anti-Asian bias in the United States. Police department statistics reveal that anti-Asian hate crimes in major cities surged nearly 150 percent last year, while in New York City they jumped more than 800 percent over 2019. Meanwhile, what the U.S. Department of Justice defines as “hate incidents” targeting Asian Americans (non-criminal acts of prejudice) have amounted to more than 2,800 since the coronavirus pandemic began. Little wonder that Asian Americans feel vulnerable.
