Hawaii Civil Rights Commission Chair Linda Hamilton Krieger on Tuesday called on island residents to stand against the reported rise in incidences of “discriminatory” harassment and intimidation.

“National reports of a spike in anti-immigrant, anti-black, anti-LGBT, anti-Muslim and anti-woman harassment in the wake of the presidential election raise serious concerns,” Krieger said in a press release. “But our values are different here in Hawaii, and we must be vigilant in protecting them. In our diversity, we must continue to embrace the value of human dignity expressed in the Native Hawaiian saying, ʻaloha aku, aloha maiʻ – to respect and to receive respect.”

Said commission executive director William Hoshijo, “In these trying times, minorities face attacks not seen since post-9/11 attacks on Muslims and Arab-Americans. Those who share a commitment to civil rights must stand up for those who cannot stand alone.”

The Hawaii Civil Rights Commission is responsible for enforcing state civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination in employment, housing, public accommodations,and state-funded services.

Hoshijo said the commission is “not aware of any local incidents at this time.”

But the commission’s action on Tuesday follows a report from the Southern Poverty Law Center that says it has identified nearly 900 incidents of harassment following Donald Trump’s election.

“The words ‘Whites Only’ and ‘Trump Nation’ were painted on to a church with a large immigrant population and a gay man was pulled from his car and attacked by an assailant who used a slur to say ‘the president says we can kill all you,’ the BBC reported.

If someone in Hawaii feels they have been subjected to discrimination or harassment based on race, ancestry, sexual orientation, religion, sex, including gender identity “or other prohibited bases,” they are encouraged to contact the commission at (808) 586-8636 or email DLIR.HCRC.INFOR@hawaii.gov.
