In the past year, researchers and activist groups have tallied thousands of racist incidents against Asian-Americans, a surge in hate that they link to former President Trump’s repeated references to the coronavirus as the “China virus.”
One of the latest, captured on video, was watched with horror around the world. Vicha Ratanapakdee, an 84-year-old retired auditor from Thailand, was violently slammed to the ground by a man who charged into him at full speed during a morning walk in San Francisco in late January, and died of a brain hemorrhage two days later.
Vicha’s killing spurred a campaign to raise awareness by many prominent Asian-Americans who took to the internet using the hashtags #JusticeForVicha and #StopAsianHate.
At a time when demands for racial justice have rocked a demographically evolving nation, the killing of Vicha was notable for the galvanizing anger that it brought to a diverse group of Asian ethnicities that encompasses people of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, South Asian and Southeast Asian heritage. The killing of a Thai man in America has given voice to a united community under the umbrella of an Asian-American identity.
