”more than three-quarters of offenders of anti-Asian hate crimes and incidents, have been white”

Anti-Asian Hate Crime Crosses Racial and Ethnic Lines 

NYなんかでもアジア人に対するヘイトクライムは黒人によるものが多いんだけど、

Several factors may explain the relatively high number of non-white arrests in New York City, Levin said. One is the city’s racially diverse urban population. Proportionally, the city has 57% more Latinos, 81% more African-Americans, 139% more Asians and about 50% fewer whites than the nation as a whole, with whites often living in less racially mixed neighborhoods, according to Levin. 

What’s more, African Americans are more frequently arrested than whites, and many whites involved in anti-Asian hate crimes may be at large, he noted. Nevertheless, noting that most hate crime perpetrators tend to be white, McDeVitt added that “other communities have modeled their attacks on what we white folks have been doing for a long time now.” 
 それは、NYでは黒人やアジア人が密集しており、白人が少ないということもあるんじゃないか、と。白人はいろんな人種が住んでいるところに住むのを嫌う傾向がある、と。また、白人より黒人のほうが警察に逮捕されやすいことなんかが関係するのではないか、と言われいてる。

 アジア人に対する黒人のヘイトクライムなどは、都市で起きることが多く、都市には監視カメラなどがあって、映像でよく報道されて、その印象が強く残るんだけど、統計を精査してみると

 Janelle Wong, a professor of American Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, released analysis last week that drew on previously published studies on anti-Asian bias. She found official crime statistics and other studies revealed more than three-quarters of offenders of anti-Asian hate crimes and incidents, from both before and during the pandemic, have been white, contrary to many of the images circulating online.


The study, which examined hate crime data from 1992 to 2014, found that compared to anti-Black and anti-Latino hate crimes, a higher proportion of perpetrators of anti-Asian hate crimes were people of color. Still, 75 percent of perpetrators were white.

アジア人に対するヘイトクライムの75%は白人が加害者。

 "This is really how crime is framed in the United States — it's framed as the source is Black," Wong said.


"These kinds of images and narratives of racial tension — Black violence on Asian people — are getting shared in Asia, as well

 

 Black Americans have long faced higher rates of hate crimes. Even though official 2019 law enforcement data show a drop in anti-Black hate crime reports, Black people were still, by far, the most targeted racial group, Wong said. That year, 58 percent of reported hate crimes were motivated by anti-Black bias, while a far smaller proportion, 4 percent, were motivated by anti-Asian bias. About 14 percent were motivated by anti-Latino bias.


Last year, when Asian Americans dealt with coronavirus-specific stereotypes, 27 percent of Asian Americans reported having ever experienced hate crimes or incidents, while 34 percent of Black Americans did, according to an AAPI Data survey.

アメリカではまだ、黒人が圧倒的にヘイトクライムの被害者で、58%は黒人に対するヘイトクライム、アジア人に対するヘイトクライムは4%であった、と。

コロナ禍でアジア人ヘイトクライムが増加したといっても、黒人は34%の人がヘイトクライムやヘイト事件に遭遇したと言っているのに対してアジア人は27%だった、と。

 事実を無視して「黒人は犯罪者だ!」というナラティブが流通してしまっている、と。

 

粋だね。

When I was in 3rd grade we went on a field trip one time to a war memorial in a local cemetery. A WWII veteran met us there to tell us his story. I don't remember all the details of his story, but one in particular has stood out to me now for 20 years.

 He was in a Japanese POW camp, and he decided to escape one night. He was sneaking around, hidden behind a corner, and he saw one of the Japanese guards on patrol stop to read a letter he pulled out of his pocket. This vet thought that there might be some valuable intel in that letter, so he decided to kill the guard and take the letter off of him. He snuck up behind him and quietly slit his throat. He could read Japanese, so he read the letter... it was a letter from the guard's young son asking him to please come home soon. He said he balled his eyes out all the way back to the American camp. 


Couldn't blame him. Ever since then, I've had a really hard time when studying history as seeing the opposite side as "evil." But war itself? That seems pretty evil.

日本に捕虜として捕まったが脱走。脱走するとき手紙を読むために立ち止まっていた監視の日本兵を殺害。日本兵の持っていた手紙には「はやく帰ってきてね」と子供からの手紙。 泣きながら米軍基地に戻った、と。

03:14 Why do you wanna go on living ? What do you care about anything ? If this terrible truth, this meaningless end of everything. And you have to try to figure out knowing that is true, not giving yourself a fake heaven and hell and nonsense. But knowing the worst. Figure it out even knowing the worst why is still worthwile. 03:40 That's a tough assignment to explain to somebody why it's so terrible and why it's still important to go on. And this is a challenge for artists all the time to try to figure it out.


人生には意味はない。その意味のない人生を生き続けなければいけない訳を模索表現するのが芸術だ、と。
