BATHINDA: With data about hate crimes in the United States of America (USA) released on Monday, it has come to fore that the Sikhs still remain the second most targeted group under religiously motivated hate crime incidents. In the data for 2022 the highest ever Anti-Sikh hate crime victimisations have been recorded at 198. The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) records such crime cases across states in the USA.
The FBI released its annual report of hate crimes statistics on October 16, reflecting information about hate crimes for 2022. The data recorded increase of 17 per cent compared to previous year of 2021, as reported by Sikh advocacy group Sikh Coalition.
Sikh Coalition has reported that religiously motivated hate crime victimizations were at their highest since 2001, with an increase of 17 per cent since 2021. Victimizations were also on the rise for numerous other faith communities, with 1,217 anti-Jewish hate crimes, 200 anti-Islamic hate crimes and 29 anti-Hindu hate crimes.
The FBI began collecting data about more categories of religiously motivated hate crimes in 2015.
Sikh Coalition states that hate remains an urgent policy priority in the United States and Sikhs remain disproportionately under threat. The data underscores the need for stronger initiatives by the federal government that demonizes marginalized groups continues to fuel more acts of hate against multiple communities.
Sikh Coalition states that FBI’s hate crime data remains woefully incomplete so long as hate crime reporting is not mandated and undertaken with serious care and standardized processes in law enforcement agencies across the country. This year’s data shows a fifth consecutive year of declines in law enforcement agency participation in the FBI’s hate crime statistics program. The Sikh Coalition and other leading civil rights organizations continue to document additional inaccuracies in hate crime reporting; as a reminder, federal-level estimates from the Bureau of Justice Statistics put annual hate crime victimizations at 246,900, but this most recent data only captures 4 per cent of that number.
Advocacy for federal and state policies that prevent, combat, and track hate crimes remains a top priority for the Sikh Coalition, it stated.
