In response to a distressing surge in hate crimes against South Asian communities across Texas since 2022, we find ourselves facing a pressing and challenging situation. Our community has been experiencing a substantial rise in hate crimes, and we lack the necessary resources and tools to address this issue effectively. To tackle this growing threat, we are organizing a crucial forum in collaboration with the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). This forum serves as a rallying call to our community, emphasizing the urgent need for collective action. Our goal is to educate everyone about the nature of hate crimes, clarify what actions classify as such, and stress the vital importance of reporting these incidents. We wholeheartedly encourage your participation in this forum, which is not just encouraged; it is absolutely vital. Together, let us stand united against hatred and create a lasting impact. Join us as we take a stand against the rising wave of hate crimes.
