Abstract:
This study analyzes five publicly posted videos wherein Asians experience interpersonal discrimination because of COVID-19. We think social scientists ignore how videos provide data for investigating interpersonal discrimination. We characterize the videos according to multiple features including context, characteristics, and responses of individuals involved, type of threat or mistreatment, and level of psychological and physical harm. We then summarize features across the videos. Among other things, analyses uncover implicit, explicit, and historically specific anti-Asian sentiment alongside evidence perpetrators are men and bystanders do not intervene typically. The Discussion contrasts Asians\' experiences of interpersonal discrimination because of COVID-19 against the interpersonal and institutional discrimination faced by American Indians, blacks, and Hispanics in the United States. That contrast brings Asians\' positionality into sharp relief.
摘要:
这项研究分析了五个公开发布的视频,其中亚洲人因COVID-19而遭受人际歧视。我们认为社会科学家忽略了视频如何为调查人际歧视提供数据。我们根据包括上下文在内的多个特征来表征视频,特点,以及相关个人的反应,威胁或虐待的类型,以及心理和身体伤害的程度。然后,我们总结了视频中的功能。除其他外,分析揭示了隐含的,明确,历史上特定的反亚洲情绪以及证据肇事者是男性,旁观者通常不会干预。该讨论将亚洲人由于COVID-19而遭受人际歧视的经历与美洲印第安人面临的人际和制度歧视进行了对比,黑人,和西班牙裔美国人。这种对比使亚洲人的立场得到了极大的缓解。
