Californians who are Asian American or Pacific Islanders (AAPI) were the targets of an escalated number of hate crimes and hate incidents during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Others experienced firsthand hateful incidents stemming from deep-rooted prejudices and stereotypes -- such as verbal or physical assaults in public.
