When prejudice-related data are combined and analyzed over time, critical information is uncovered about overall trends, related intermittent spikes, and less common sharp inflectional shifts in aggression. These shifts impact social cohesion and grievously harm specific sub-groups when aggression escalates and is redirected or mainstreamed. These data, so critical to public policy formation, show that we are in such a historic inflection period now. Moreover, analysis of the latest, though partial Federal Bureau of Investigation hate crime data release, when overlaid with available data from excluded large jurisdictions, reveals hate crimes hit a record high in 2021 in the United States that previously went unreported. This Essay analyzes the most recent national data as well as various numerical and policy milestones that accompanied the historic, yet incomplete, implementation of hate crime data collection and related statutes over recent decades. This analysis of emerging trends in the United States is undertaken in the context of bigoted aggression broken down over time.

当与偏见相关的数据随着时间的推移被组合和分析时，就会发现关于总体趋势、相关间歇性尖峰和不太常见的攻击性急剧变化的关键信息。当攻击升级并被重定向或主流化时，这些转变会影响社会凝聚力并严重伤害特定的子群体。这些对公共政策形成至关重要的数据表明，我们现在正处于这样一个历史性的拐点时期。此外，对联邦调查局发布的最新但部分仇恨犯罪数据的分析，加上来自被排除在外的大型司法管辖区的可用数据，显示美国的仇恨犯罪在 2021 年创下历史新高，而此前并未报告。这篇文章分析了最近几十年来仇恨犯罪数据收集和相关法规的历史性但不完整的实施所伴随的最新国家数据以及各种数字和政策里程碑。这种对美国新兴趋势的分析是在随着时间的推移逐渐瓦解的顽固侵略的背景下进行的。
