To better understand AAPI experiences with discrimination and civil rights violations since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Stop AAPI Hate commissioned NORC at the University of Chicago to conduct a nationally representative survey of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

This landmark survey adds to community-generated data at Stop AAPI Hate and existing research to provide a more complete picture of the discrimination that impacts Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and the changes needed to uphold the civil rights that protect us all. The report, Righting Wrongs: How Civil Rights Can Protect Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders Against Racism, examines the survey findings, highlights current federal laws that protect our rights, and recommends new laws to strengthen these protections.
