Abstract: Racially-motivated verbal and physical assaults toward people of Asian descent in the UnitedStates have escalated substantially in the United States since 2020. However, authorities do notoften view these cases as racially-motivated. I argue that this is a continuation of a long historicaltrend in the United States due to a renewed kind of Yellow Peril fear. I look at the language andmetaphors used by politicians that has revitalized pre-existing discrimination towards the EastAsian Americans, both during the pandemic and previously, and examine how those in authorityhandled these cases. Dissemination of misinformation and false news stories concerning COVIDhas created a new Yellow Peril Redux using new symbolic vocabulary. This has reified, reinforced,and--indeed--legitimated increased prejudice and intolerance against an already marginalizedcommunity.
