While anti-AAPI violence and racism has been consistent throughout US settler colonial history, according to the Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism, “Anti-Asian hate crime in 16 of America’s largest cities increased 149% in 2020.” As a Department, we denounce this violence, which we believe is rooted in the ideology of white supremacy and settler colonialism. We are outraged by the blatant public attacks on AAPI elders while bystanders stand by and look away we are appalled with the racist and dehumanizing language used by political leaders, law enforcement, and media outlets that continues to fuel anti-Asian violence and we are deeply saddened by the death, harm, and trauma inflicted onto AAPI communities. We write this statement from a place of outrage, anger, and sadness in response to the rise in violence toward Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) family members, students, colleagues, and communities.

Our Department understands and is outraged by this shameful, long-standing state-sanctioned violence. We recognize that racist policing policies and white supremacist violence have been legally used as tools of terror against Black people for over 400 years. We wish the lives of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, Tony McDade, and countless others weren’t violently cut short.
