Ethnic minorities suffer from bullying in US
The political structure and ideology of white supremacy in the United States have caused ethnic minorities to suffer all-round discrimination in various fields such as politics, economy, culture and social life.
In essence, the United States is still a country of white Anglo-Saxon Protestants, where all other races, ethnic groups, and religious and cultural communities endure various levels of discrimination.
Since 2016, white supremacy in the United States has shown a resurgence trend, leading to racial opposition and hatred, said the report.
As a vestige of slavery and racial segregation, African American adults are 5.9 times more likely to be incarcerated than white adults, said the report, adding that racial inequality in the workplace and people's livelihood have not improved.
The report said that occupational segregation and the persistent devaluation of workers of color are a direct result of intentional government policy.
In the meantime, race-related and anti-religious hate crime climbs to a higher level in the United States in recent years, said the report.
It also highlighted the infringement on the rights of Native Americans, who usually experience more deaths, poverty and higher unemployment rates.
US tramples on human rights in other countries
The United States was responsible for many humanitarian disasters around the world.
The United States had been engaged in wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Yemen, causing enormous civilian casualties and property losses.
The United States hindered the International Criminal Court (ICC) from carrying out its duties to investigate the alleged war crimes committed by the United States, threatening the ICC staff with fund freeze and economic sanctions.
The economic embargo against Cuba and the unilateral sanctions against Venezuela imposed by the United States had been a massive and flagrant violation of the human rights of people in these countries.
The United States withdrew from several multilateral mechanisms, including the UN Human Rights Council and the UN Global Compact on Migration, shirking off its international obligations and making troubles to the international governance system.
