Since the COVID-19 pandemic started, hate-related incidents directed towards Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders have risen drastically.According to Stop Asian-American and Pacific Islander Hate, an advocacy group working to raise awareness about the issue, 2,538 have been documented since March.The group, based in the San Francisco Bay Area, says incidents are self-reported, as well as taken from news reports across the country.“Surveys have shown that over three-quarters of Asian Americans are aware and fear racial bias at the moment,” said Russell Jeung, a professor of Asian-American Studies at San Francisco State University, who tracks the incidents for Stop AAPI Hate.Jeung says his research has found the President Donald Trump’s use of the term “China virus” is having a direct impact on the harassment, as 30 percent of the incidents reported say the language used has mirrored the president’s.“We’re seeing vulnerable populations being targeted,” said Jeung. “Women are harassed 2.4 times more than men. Youth make up 14 percent of our cases so that means there’s a lot of school bullying going on, a lot of online cyber-bullying."“We’ve seen incidents of spitting, vandalism, hostility towards Asian-owned businesses during this time,” said Jay Cheng, a member of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce.Two months ago four Asian-owned businesses were vandalized and robbed in the city’s Outer Balboa neighborhood, one of San Francisco’s most diverse areas. Windows were smashed and derogatory language was written on several storefronts.“San Francisco is, in many ways, the capital of Asian-America, so this is the last place you would expect to see that type of racism,” said Cheng.Jeung says in Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities across the country, the harassment causes apprehension and pain knowing once an illness hits, these communities get blamed.“It’s not unexpected. I was ready, but I find the hate palpable and horrific,” said Jeung. “It’s just really sad to me that people are so angry, so fearful, and that they’re scapegoating other people for the pandemic rather than blaming it as a natural virus.”Jeung says the way forward is recognizing that words matter. He says a group similar to Stop AAPI Hate based in Australia has reported cases of Anti-Asian and Pacific Islander harassment that mirrors President’s Trump use of the term “China virus."“This November, there is going to be a very clear statement about whether or not this language, this type of attitude, is acceptable or not,” said Cheng. 2556

Snapchat can't catch a break.Shares of the social media company plunged Wednesday after it changed its app again — only months after a previous redesign that ticked off users.Snap stock was down 7% in midday trading, putting it more than 15% below the price when it went public last year.Last year, Snapchat changed the app to differentiate between a user's personal friends and media superstars that a user follows. Many fans revolted. So did Wall Street.The latest changes appear to backtrack. On the same Discover page, some users now see a test that shows Stories from their friends as well as posts from celebrities and other "influencers" that they subscribe to."We are always listening to our community and will continue to test updates that we hope will give Snapchatters the best possible experience on our platform," a Snapchat spokesperson told CNNMoney in response to a question about the changes.Celebrities aren't pleased with Snap lately, either.Kylie Jenner bashed Snapchat in February. Her tweet criticizing the redesign — she called it "so sad" — caused the stock to tank. Jenner later took a literal baby step back toward Snapchat, posting videos of her infant daughter, Stormi, to the platform.)Related: The Kylie Jenner curse? Snapchat faces its defining momentAnd just last month, Rihanna attacked the company after an ad on Snapchat made light of a 2009 incident in which Rihanna's former boyfriend Chris Brown was arrested. He later pleaded guilty to beating her during an argument.The constant rejiggering of Snapchat has clearly annoyed lots of users, though, not just famous people. It's making investors nervous, too. And it couldn't happen at a worse time for the company.It's still not clear that Snapchat will ever be able to be profitable enough to live up to the hype before it went public. Snapchat rallied after its last "earnings" report, but investors still worry about slow user growth.In many respects, Snapchat's challenges are similar to those of Twitter — a company that never can seem to satisfy Wall Street. Twitter stock fell Wednesday even though the company reported revenue and profit that topped forecasts.Concerns about privacy for social media users have reached new heights since the Facebook/Cambridge Analytica data scandal.Of course, Facebook also owns Snapchat's fiercest rival, Instagram. Many investors worry that Snapchat won't ever top Instagram's user count, especially if Instagram keeps rolling out features similar to Snapchat's.Facebook will report its latest earnings, including Instagram user numbers, after the market closes Wednesday.— CNNMoney's Kaya Yurieff contributed to this story.

Starbucks announced in a press release Tuesday that it will close 8,000 company-owned stores in the United States on May 29 in order to provide its staff with mandatory racial-bias education.The stores will be closed during afternoon hours that day. At that time, employees will be required to attend a training session that will address "implicit bias, promote conscious inclusion, prevent discrimination and ensure everyone inside a Starbucks store feels safe and welcome."The press release states that the program will be developed with "national and local experts on confronting racial bias," along with NAACP officials and former Attorney General Eric Holder.The announcement comes just days after two black men were arrested at a Philadelphia Starbucks. The police were called because the men chose not to order anything. The men were later released when the company chose not to press charges.Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson apologized for the arrest on Monday, calling the situation "reprehensible.""Starbucks stands firmly against discrimination or racial profiling," Johnson said. 1109
