We know that this type of crime is often intended to intimidate an entire community. Asian women in Georgia have a very powerful and visible voice -- and we cannot allow it to be silenced. We stand with our Asian American neighbors who are grieving.\r\n\r\nWhat happened yesterday is sickening.\r\n\r\nSomeone drove miles from his home, in an area that has a relatively small Asian American population. He drove from municipality to municipality; he searched out places that employ Asian American women; and he went from one place to another to another, shooting Asian American women. When he was caught, he was reportedly headed to Florida to continue his killing spree.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s extremely clear from the circumstances that he was hunting, looking for Asian American women to kill.\r\n\r\nThis certainly has all the characteristics of a hate crime, a crime of white supremacy and misogyny. <strong>Les chiffres sont choquants et ne doivent pas \u00eatre ignor\u00e9s<\/strong>Des crimes haineux contre les Am\u00e9ricains d&#039;origine asiatique se sont produits tout au long de l&#039;histoire de notre pays ; mais ils <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csusb.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/FACT%20SHEET-%20Anti-Asian%20Hate%202020%203.2.21.pdf\">a grimp\u00e9 en fl\u00e8che en 2020<\/a>, alors que le pr\u00e9sident Trump accusait la Chine d&#039;\u00eatre responsable du COVID. Un nombre disproportionn\u00e9 de crimes haineux ont r\u00e9cemment \u00e9t\u00e9 commis contre <a href=\"https:\/\/stopaapihate.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Stop-AAPI-Hate-Report-National-210506.pdf\">Femmes am\u00e9ricaines d&#039;origine asiatique<\/a> -- almost twice as many, as compared to men. Recent polling shows that <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NAPAWF\/status\/1372043142510350337\">pr\u00e8s de la moiti\u00e9 des femmes AAPI<\/a> have been affected by Anti-Asian racism in the past two years.\r\n\r\nUsing some other narrative to excuse this killing spree does a grave disservice to all victims of hate, and all people who fear becoming victims of hate.\r\n\r\nJust last year, Georgia finally passed a <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/5fd5d599dfd0e5f1ebebbd2d5351de12\">Loi sur les crimes haineux<\/a>. That law -- so long delayed -- now needs to be enforced. Georgia should not be a place where hate is institutionalized, where motives are camouflaged by law enforcement officials, where the truth remains unsaid.\r\n\r\nThe facts here are clear to anyone who is willing to look.\r\n\r\nGeorgians should not have to live in fear of being targeted, hunted down and killed because of ethnicity, gender, or both.\r\n\r\nAs a country, we have grieved over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/fr\/press-release\/tragedy-of-george-floyds-death-compounded-by-president-trump\/\">la mort de George Floyd<\/a>Nous avons pleur\u00e9 la <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/fr\/medias\/we-can-be-better-than-this-americans-must-repudiate-politics-of-hate\/\">Meurtres \u00e0 la synagogue Tree of Life<\/a>Nous avons pleur\u00e9 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/fr\/medias\/hate-and-oppression-of-any-group-impacts-all\/\">La fusillade de la discoth\u00e8que Pulse<\/a>Nous avons pleur\u00e9 la perte de vies humaines \u00e0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/fr\/democracy-wire\/common-cause-pleure-les-fusillades-de-charleston\/\">\u00c9glise Emanuel AME \u00e0 Charleston<\/a>.\r\n\r\nYesterday\u2019s killing spree was just as clearly motivated by hate -- hate that should have no place in Georgia or in our politics.\r\n\r\nWhitewashing the motive keeps us mired in the hate. It\u2019s time to call it out, for what it is; and it\u2019s time to end it.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin: 15.0pt 0in 15.0pt 0in;\" align=\"center\"><b><i><span style=\"font-size: 13.0pt; color: black;\">D\u00e9claration de la pr\u00e9sidente de Common Cause, Karen Hobert Flynn<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\r\nThe horrific murders in Georgia targeting Asian American women are tragedies that leave families and communities reeling, angry, and afraid in Georgia and far beyond. The victims were targeted and hunted and their murders must be prosecuted as hate crimes. Asian American and Pacific Islander communities nationwide have suffered from a huge spike in hate crimes - <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csusb.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/FACT%20SHEET-%20Anti-Asian%20Hate%202020%203.2.21.pdf\">augmentation de 149%<\/a> - since former President Trump\u2019s incendiary and racist rhetoric blaming China for the spread of COVID-19, targeting Muslims and Asian countries with travel bans, and stoking white supremacist violence.\r\n\r\nRacism, white supremacy, and hate crimes flourished during an era when overt racism and dog whistles drove many White House policy initiatives, press conferences, and campaign rallies. The same hatred fueled the deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, racially motivated shootings from coast-to-coast, and the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that left five people dead and scores with serious injuries. This hatred leaves too many Americans to live in fear for their own safety as they go about their daily lives. This hatred must be confronted and stopped, by law enforcement, which too often reveals its own implicit biases, by the courts, by politicians, and by all of us as Americans.\r\n\r\nThis ugly chapter in our history calls out for action. We need strong legislation that strengthens hate-crime reporting and better support for victims of hate crimes, as well as community members who live in fear, isolation and feel victimized by these vicious incidents.\r\n\r\nTragedies like yesterday must serve as a call to our leaders as well as each of us to redouble our efforts to make our nation one where every American - regardless of their zip code, race or background - is treated equally."}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Georgia Murders Point to Growing Incidence of Hate Crimes &amp;
