America is undergoing an extreme makeover, thanks to rapid demographic diversification. For example, the percentage of people in the U.S. who are multiracial increased from just 2.9% in 2010 to 10.2% in 2020. As the U.S. diversifies, it must stamp out hatred and promote unity, and there's a lot of work to do. Hate crimes rose in 2022, and by startling amounts in some cities – 18% in New York City and 13% in Los Angeles, for instance.
