  COVID-19 has aided the spread of racism, as well as national insecurity,
distrust of immigrants, and general xenophobia, both of which may be linked to
the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes during the pandemic. Coronavirus Disease
2019(COVID19) is thought to have originated in late December 2019 in Wuhan,
China, and quickly spread across the world during the spring months of 2020.
Asian Americans recorded in increase in racially based hate crimes including
physical abuse and intimidation as COVID-19 spread throughout the United
States. This research study was conducted by high school students in the Bay
Area to compare the intention and characteristics of hate crimes against Asian
Americans to hate crimes against African Americans. According to studies of
both victim-related and most offender-related variables, hate crimes against
Asian Americans have been rapidly growing in the United States and vary from
those against African Americans. This leads to an investigation into the racial
disparity between Asian American offenders and those of other races. The nature
and characteristics of hate crimes against Asian Americans are compared to
those of hate crimes against African Americans in our research. According to
studies of all victim-related factors, hate crimes against Asian Americans are
similar to those against African Americans. Hate crimes against Asian
Americans, on the other hand, vary greatly from hate crimes against African
Americans in terms of the offender's ethnicity and all incident-related
variables.
