Asian-Americans Are Being Attacked. Why Are Hate Crime Charges So Rare?
On a cold evening last month, a Chinese man was walking home near Manhattan’s Chinatown neighborhood when a stranger suddenly ran up behind him and plunged ( ) a knife into his back.
For many Asian-Americans, the stabbing ( ) was horrifying, but not surprising. It was widely seen as just the latest example of racially targeted violence against Asians during the pandemic.
But the perpetrator ( ), a 23-year-old man from Yemen, had not said a word to the victim before the attack, investigators ( ) said. Prosecutors ( ) determined they lacked enough evidence to prove a racist ( ) motive ( ). The attacker was charged with attempted murder, but not as a hate crime ( ).
The announcement outraged ( ) Asian-American leaders in New York City. Many of them protested ( ) outside the Manhattan district attorney’s office, demanding that the stabbing be prosecuted as a hate crime. They were tired of what they saw as racist assaults being overlooked ( ) by the authorities ( ).
The rally ( ) reflected the tortured ( ) public conversation over how to confront ( ) a rise in reports of violence against Asian-Americans, who have felt increasingly vulnerable ( ) with each new attack. Many incidents have either not led to arrests or have not been charged as hate crimes, making it difficult to capture with reliable data the extent to which Asian-Americans are being targeted.
That frustration erupted on a national scale ( ) this week after Robert Aaron Long, a white man, was charged with fatally shooting eight people, including six women of Asian descent ( ), at spas in the Atlanta area on Tuesday night.
Other incidents that clearly seemed racially motivated have not resulted in arrests. The police are still searching for a man who called an Asian-American mother the “Chinese virus” and spat ( ) at her child in Queens last week.
In New York State, to charge ( ) such attacks as hate crimes, prosecutors would need to show that the victims were targeted because of their race.
But proving a racist motive can be particularly difficult with attacks against Asians, experts say. There is no widely recognized symbol of anti-Asian hate comparable to a noose ( ) or a swastika ( ). Historically, many Asian crime victims around the country were small-business owners who were robbed, complicating ( ) the question of motive.
Under New York State law, certain offenses can be upgraded to hate crimes, increasing the potential prison sentence ( ). As evidence, prosecutors often point to hateful verbal statements or social media posts by the defendant ( ).
In the past month alone, several assaults ( ) on Asian victims have been reported to the police, including an attack on an older woman who was pushed outside a bakery in Queens. None of the incidents has been charged as a hate crime.
In fact, the only person who has been prosecuted for an anti-Asian hate crime in New York City this year is Taiwanese. He was accused of writing anti-Chinese graffiti outside several businesses in Queens.
Wayne Ho, president of the Chinese-American Planning Council, a social services agency, said many of his Asian colleagues were verbally harassed ( ) during the pandemic but chose not to alert law enforcement because they worried the perpetrators, who were often people of color, could be mistreated ( ) by the police.
“I asked myself, do I want this person in jail?” said Alice Wong, one of Mr. Ho’s colleagues. “Just because you put someone in jail doesn’t make them not hate anyone anymore.”
Recognizing ( ) this challenge, some law enforcement officials have called for people who commit hate crimes to attend antiracism classes as an alternative ( ) to prison.
為何針對亞裔的暴力襲擊難以被控仇恨犯罪?
上月一個寒冷的晚上,一名華裔男子在曼哈頓中國城社區附近步行回家時,一個陌生人突然跑到他身後,把刀刺進他的後背。
對許多亞裔美國人來說,這起事件令人驚恐,但並不意外。人們普遍認為,這只是在疫情期間針對亞裔的種族暴力的最新例子。
但調查人員表示,行兇者是一名23歲的葉門男子,他在襲擊前沒有對受害者說過一句話。檢察官認為缺乏足夠的證據來證明種族主義動機。襲擊者被指控謀殺未遂,而不是出於仇恨犯罪。
這一聲明激怒了紐約市的亞裔美國人領袖。他們中的許多人在曼哈頓地區檢察官辦公室外抗議,要求以仇恨犯罪的罪名起訴。他們厭倦了他們眼中的種族主義攻擊被當局忽視。
這次集會反映了對於如何應對暴力侵害亞裔美國人的報導增多,公眾開始了痛苦的討論。每一次新的襲擊都讓亞裔美國人感到越來越脆弱。許多事件要不是沒有逮捕任何人,就是沒有被指控為仇恨犯罪,因此很難用可靠的數據來了解亞裔美國人在多大程度上成為攻擊目標。
在白人男子羅伯特•亞倫•朗(Robert Aaron Long)被控週二晚在亞特蘭大地區的水療中心開槍打死八人(其中包括六名亞裔女性)後,這種不滿情緒本週在全國範圍內爆發。
其他明顯帶有種族動機的事件並沒有導致逮捕。目前警方仍在搜尋一名男子,此人上週在皇后區稱一名亞裔美國母親為「中國病毒」,並向她的孩子吐口水。
在紐約州,要指控此類襲擊為仇恨犯罪,檢察官需要證明受害者是因其種族而成為攻擊目標。
但專家表示,在針對亞裔的攻擊中,證明種族主義動機可能特別困難。沒有一種被廣泛認可的反亞裔仇恨象徵可以對應套索或納粹符號。歷史上,全國各地的許多亞裔犯罪受害者都是被搶劫的小商店業者,這使得動機問題變得更加複雜。
根據紐約州的法律,某些犯罪行為可以升級為仇恨犯罪,從而增加潛在的監禁刑期。作為證據,檢察官經常指出被告充滿仇恨的口頭聲明或社群媒體發文。
僅在過去的一個月中,警方就接到了數起針對亞裔受害者的襲擊報告,其中包括在皇后區一名老年女性被推出一家麵包店。沒有任何事件被指控為仇恨犯罪。
實際上,紐約市今年因反亞裔仇恨罪被起訴的唯一一人是台灣人。他被指控在皇后區的幾家商店外塗鴉反華內容。
社會服務機構華裔美國人規劃委員會(Chinese-American Planning Council)主席韋恩•何(Wayne Ho)表示,他的許多亞裔同事在疫情大流行期間受到了口頭騷擾,但他們選擇不向執法部門報告,因為他們擔心騷擾者(通常是有色人種)可能會受到警方的虐待。
「我問自己,我想讓這個人進監獄嗎?」韋恩•何的同事愛麗絲•黃(Alice Wong)說。「把一個人關進監獄並不會讓他們不再憎恨任何人。」
認識到這一挑戰,一些執法官員呼籲犯下仇恨罪行的人參加反種族歧視課程,以替代坐牢。

Königsberger klopse (柯尼斯堡丸子) 食谱來了☺️

少許鹽巴和胡椒 (some salt and pepper)
1湯匙 糖 (1 tbsp sugar)
1. 把所有肉丸的材料都混合在一起,除了月桂葉子, 把肉揉成圓形形狀。

2. Prepare a pot with water, add in bay leaves bring to a boil. Put the meatballs into the boiling water, cook it around 15 minutes until fully cook.
After the meatballs is cooked, take out the meatballs,keep the meatballs soup for the gravy later.
3.把牛油倒進溫熱的鍋子裡面,把奶油化開,加入麵粉,一勺一勺慢慢加,同時快速攪拌,直到麵粉和牛油混合在一起後還是濃厚液體的狀況。把重奶油+刺山柑+一半肉湯加進去繼續攪拌直到濃厚。
💥貼士:醬汁太厚的話可以加点肉湯進去,醬汁太稀的話可以加入麵粉,加入麵粉時為了防止出現顆粒,請快速攪拌均勻。
3. Put the Butter into a warm pot, let the butter melt, add in the flour slowly, bit by bit,stir it fast at the same time. Until the butter and flour are mix well in a thick liquid form. Add in the heavy cream +capers+half of the meatballs soup into the gravy.
💥Tips: If the gravy is too thick, please add in some more meatballs soup. If the gravy is thin, you can add some flour into it. To avoid the gravy turn to lumpy, please stir it as fast as possible.
4. 最後把一湯匙糖,鹽巴+胡椒加進醬汁裡面,再把肉丸加進去醬汁裡面, 小火煮5分鐘。起鍋前可以加入芹菜點綴。
4. Lastly add in the sugar, salt and pepper into the gravy, and follow by the meatballs, continue cook it for about 5 minutes with slow fire.
Before serve, put some parsley into it.

Portuguese Garlic Shrimp by Jimmy’s Table
This is definitely one of our favorite dishes to eat in Portugal. We ate this in Lisbon, Algarve and Porto. Every restaurant that had this dish, we ordered it. My version is a more elevated version where I infused the olive oil with shrimp shells to give a powerful shrimp flavor blast! It also makes for a fantastic dip for crunchy French bread. What's best is that this dish is so easy to make! Hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients 食材:
0.5-1 kg of large red shrimps or langoustines with heads (大蝦)
1/2 cup (15 pieces) of Garlic - sliced (大蒜)
1 cup of Cilantro - leaves only (香菜)
2 lemons - halved and squeezed for juice, seeds removed (檸檬)
1-2 tablespoons of paprika (紅甜椒粉)
1 glass of white wine (白酒)
5-6 tablespoons of garlic infused olive oil (大蒜橄欖油)
Salt - for taste (鹽)
Finishing Ingredients 撒料調味:
1/2 lemon (檸檬)
1/4 cup cilantro (香菜)
Fresh loaf of crunchy french bread (法國麵包)
STEP 1
Cut garlic into slices.
步驟 1
將大蒜切成片。
STEP 2
To prepare the shrimp, we need to remove the shell without removing the head and tail. We do so by using a pair of scissors to cut down the spine of the shrimp from where the head meets the body upto one segment before the tail.
步驟 2
準備蝦子,將蝦殼身的部分剝除,保留頭跟尾巴,所以我們可以準備剪刀,從跟蝦頭連接的地方至蝦尾巴部分剪開。
STEP 3
Then start to peel away the shrimp shell and legs in the middle section. Be careful not to peel off the tail or head. Save the shells to be used to flavor the oil. Remove the dark, digestive tract along the spine, as this is dirty and you don’t want to eat it. Rinse with cold water to clean and drain.
步驟 3
接著剝除蝦子中斷的殼跟腳的部分,小心不要將頭跟尾巴去除了。記得將蝦殼留著,要來增加油的風味。接著也將蝦子的腸泥一併去除,並用清水簡單沖洗、瀝乾蝦子。
STEP 4
On the stove, add in 5-6 tablespoons of garlic olive oil until entire surface is covered with a layer of oil and heat up your pan. The shrimp and garlic infused olive oil will be used later to dip your bread in, so be generous!
步驟 4
在鍋中放入5-6匙大蒜橄欖油,直到整個蓋過鍋底,然後開火加熱油。因為等會兒會再另外加入蝦子與蒜頭,最後麵包也要沾這個由來享用,所以油量放的不能太少唷!
STEP 5
When the oil is very watery in the pan, it is hot enough. On low to medium heat, add in shrimp shells to fry. The goal is the get all of the great shrimp flavors into the olive oil.
步驟 5
當油加熱至水狀時,代表已經足夠熱了。將火調至中火,加入蝦殼先炒香。這個步驟是為了將蝦子的香味煮入油中。
STEP 6
When the shrimp is fried, about 5-8 minutes, then remove and strain the rest of the oils from the shrimp shells.
步驟 6
將蝦殼炸約5-8分鐘後,將蝦殼撈起然後瀝乾蝦油。
STEP 7
Add in garlic slices to simmer and fry into the shrimp olive oil for about 30 seconds to a minute without browning the garlic too much.
步驟 7
直接在蝦油的鍋中加入大蒜來煨煮跟翻炒,大約30秒~1分鐘,別將大蒜炒得太焦。
STEP 8
Add in shrimp one at a time and ensure entire pans surface is utilized. Add 1-2 teaspoons of sea salt for taste. Evenly add in 1-2 tablespoons of paprika.
步驟 8
慢慢的將蝦子排入鍋中,好好利用與鍋子接觸的地方來烹煮。加入1-2茶匙海鹽,再均勻加入1-2湯匙紅甜椒粉。
STEP 9
After cooking for about 1-2 minutes, flip the shrimp to cook the other side until golden orange.
步驟9
大約烹煮1-2分鐘左右後,將蝦子翻面煎至金黃橘色的狀態。
STEP10
Add in 1/2 cup of white wine. Squeeze in a lemon. Cook for about 5-10 minutes until shrimp are fully cooked. This will depend on the size and thickness of the shrimp.
步驟10
接著加入1/2杯白酒,擠入檸檬汁,接著再繼續煮5-10分鐘,讓蝦子完全熟透。(烹煮時間會因蝦子大小不同而不等)
STEP 11
Be sure to taste the garlic shrimp olive oil sauce to see if you need to add in more salt, wine, or lemon juice. Towards the end, pour in another 1/2 cup of wine so that it will give it a more fragrant wine taste.
步驟11
自行嚐嚐蝦油的味道是否足夠,若不夠可以再加鹽巴、白酒跟檸檬來做調整。最後在要起鍋前,將剩餘1/2杯的白酒加入鍋中,能讓這道菜更有葡萄酒的香氣。
STEP 12
Lastly, add in the cilantro and stir in. We don’t want to over cook the cilantro.
步驟12
最後加入香菜簡單拌炒一下(香菜不適合過度烹煮)
STEP 13
For plating, you can either serve it in a pot or directly using a cast iron pan. Prepare some sliced french bread for dipping. Add in half a lemon. I used a torch to burn the lemon for a good lemon smell, but it can also be squeezed into the shrimp. Top it with some cilantro.
步驟13
關於擺盤,可以直接使用烹煮時的鐵鍋,或者準備鐵盤來擺也很有葡萄牙的風味。準備一些切片的法式麵包。我用噴槍稍微烤檸檬切面,以在這道菜聞到更濃厚檸檬的香氣,也可以將其擠入菜中。
