| On average, 205,000 U.S. residents report being victims of hate crimes every year, according to DOJ officials. Hate crimes, including those motivated by bias against an actual or perceived religion, can have a broader effect than other kinds of violent crimes because they target both the victim and the group the victim represents. Chapter 1 examines the role of religious actors in hate crimes. Chapter 2 reviews the prevalence of religious-based hate crimes and bias incidents on college campuses; what steps colleges are taking to address them; and the extent to which Education and DOJ help colleges, campus law enforcement, and other stakeholders monitor and address these crimes and bias incidents. Chapter 3 looks at the rise of anti-Semitism. |
