1:33Now PlayingNew surveys of Asian Americans are revealing the anti-Asian racism that surged during the Covid pandemic is not going away, and advocacy groups are using the data to push for social and policy changes. Bloomberg's Sunny Kim reports on the latest data on poverty, crime, health and workplace retention.
The research from groups including the Asian American Foundation, Columbia University’s School of Social Work, the Association of Asian American Investment Managers and Pew Research signals a shift for Asian Americans, the fastest-growing racial group in the US. Historically, there has been a lack of data on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) related to everything from poverty and crime to health and workplace retention, leaving the population out of critical policy and funding decisions.
In New York, AAPI advocates say city spending is failing to meet the needs of its growing population and wants $19 million for services such as anti domestic-violence initiatives, youth programs, and adult and digital literacy. On Wednesday, advocates from the 18% & Growing Campaign will rally at Queens Borough Hall, the second in a citywide series of demonstrations in May — AAPI Heritage month — to demand more government funding. The campaign represents 90 organizations serving the city’s AAPIs.
