New data from the FBI reports that anti-Asian hate crimes have decreased by 34% from 2021 to 2022.
While this statistic may sound encouraging, experts suggest that the recent decline may not be a long-term trend. Anti-Asian hate crimes are cyclical and can be influenced by national and international culture.
“The data is a reminder that hate never goes away, it only hides. Any hate crime is a stain on the soul of America,” President Joe Biden said in a statement, according to American Kahani.
