Has there been an uptick in attacks on Asians in your area since the pandemic?
Recent attacks on Asian Americans (particularly seniors) have made the news in the Bay Area. Some analyses are framing these attacks as being due to COVID, because the Chinese and more broadly Asians in general are being blamed for COVID. I remember earlier in the pandemic hearing about an increase in anti-Asian rhetoric and hate crimes due to the pandemic. I’m not sure if that explains what’s been happening in the Bay Area recently (many of the perps seem to be young black men, which may be its own complicated issue of racial tensions, especially in cities like Oakland). But my question is is this happening outside of the Bay Area too? Have you noticed pandemic-related hatred directed at Asians within the past year?
I also know we have several Bay Area jellies, so I’m interested to hear your take too.
