Stop Asian Hate is a slogan and name of a series of demonstrations, protests, and rallies against violence against Asians, Asian Americans, and others of Asian descent. They were held across the United States in 2021 in response to racial discrimination against Asian Americans relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]

Many rallies occurred in the wake of a mass shooting that occurred at three Atlanta spas in which eight people were killed, six of whom were women of Asian descent. However, the movement first began to gain traction after the killing of Vicha Ratanapakdee nearly two months earlier.
