NYC leaders showed their support to the Asian-American community following a recent string of anti-Asian crimes.
Signs read "stop Asian hate" and "not your scapegoat" at a rally in Foley Park in Manhattan Saturday.
On Friday, four men were attacked - with one being fatally stabbed. An Asian man was also attacked in Chinatown on Thursday.
Witnesses told law enforcement that the victim was stabbed, and it appeared unprovoked.
New York Attorney General Letitia James says anyone who's been a victim of discriminatory action to report it immediately.
