Talking About Righting Wrongs Report and STAATUS Index 2023

Welcome to Season 3, Episode 30. Stop AAPI Hate doesn’t just aggregate discrimination and racism. They are a consortium of organizations dedicated to doing research, surveys, and reports to collect data and share the Asian American Pacific Islander experience. In this episode, we talk about and discuss their latest report, Righting Wrongs: How Civil Rights Can Protect Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders Against Racism. They worked with NORC at the University of Chicago to do this work. We also discuss the latest annual  Social Tracking of Asian Americans in the U.S.  Index that is organized by The Asian American Foundation. Now in its third year, the STAATUS Index does a great job tracking trends and feelings of belonging, stereotyping, and discrimination of the AANHPI community. We highly recommended reading the full reports for both (don’t worry, they’re pretty short and easy to consume), but both have shorter executive summaries. We close the show by sharing what we’re watching and talk about Asian American representation in the Titans as well as Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies.
