Hate crimes are targeted at a person because of prejudice towards that person’s race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability, etc. Such incidences can feel like a crime for those who suffer them. Starting as minor incidences, it can escalate into frequent offences. Hence, conducting a hate crime case study can fill in the vital details like what are the causes of hate crimes that are underreported in communities. It may also narrow down the critical knowledge gap to illuminate a better pathway forward.
