Aki Mahara, 71. A professor in the Department of History Department on East Los Angeles College, fights to recover from injuries that were suffered in an obvious hate criminal attack in Montebello while the perpetrators remain at large.

A Go Fund Me Page (www.gofundme.com/f/victim-of-hat-aki-aki-mahara-needs-help), which was founded by Maehara's friend Glorya Cabrera, contains Maehara's statement:

“On Tuesday, April 29, 2025, when I went back to my house, I saw headlights behind me. I turned around and saw how a car came straight on me.

“I heard someone screaming, 'f'g chink!' When I was hit, I heard: 'Go back to Chinland.' When I lay on the floor, he drove away.

“I have suffered a concealment of the brain. Broken cheeks, neck injury. Swelling and bruises from my face to my upper chest. Bruise, hip, thigh and ankle. The elbow was torn open. I was in the veteran hospital for a day.

“I had tensions from a former roommate who had connections to white supremacist groups and had received threats from a person in these hate groups. The Montebello police department is currently examining evidence as” attempted vehicle murder “.

Cabrera wrote: “The most urgent milestone is to bring a professional home staff to Akis house. Aki was released from the VA hospital three days after this malignant crime. He is unable to prepare meals, bathe himself, clean his blood -stained bed sheet or change its bandages.

“VA has already failed to pick up Professor Mahara due to changes to the connection. AKI is rightly concerned about the possibility of infection.

“This fundraising campaign ensures that we can hire a home health assistant while waiting for protection services for adults and hatred for HHA. The HHA helps: its bandages, the preparation of dishes, monitoring of its medication and the laundry to ensure that his injuries remain clean. Support required.

“Hate crimes rise due to the hideous rhetoric, which is used by those in Washington and the so-called Maga extremely Christian rights, which feel justified in their violence, which is directed against non-white citizens.

“Aki teaches the history of racial beliefs and racism in the colonial and the US story. He also has Asian American studies, Chicano studies, African -American studies and indigenous people in America.

“At a time when self-known Kkker Shiloh Hendrix, from her hateful racist scolding of a 5-year autistic black child, increases millions of her hateful racist scolding, it is an excitement to collect the necessary means for Aki Mahara that aimed at hatred crimes.

“It is terrible that a man behind a steering wheel in his attempt to feel too inevitable, we are lucky. We are lucky that his goal was not achieved. But AKI is seriously injured and now needs a home health care! This 71 -year -old Vietnam/College professor was with a hair with a difficult HUIR, a long hint of hair, a long faith and a long faith, which is Lokus with a skin and a house with a skin and a locomotive with a house.

“At this point, he does not have the resources to pay for a home health advisor and cannot be able to take care of himself. We have to bring help as soon as possible into this situation, as he is unable to bathe himself, prepare meals or change his bandages.

“As a Vietnam veterinarian, a college professor and a venerated, respected oldest in the Los Angeles community, Prof. Aki is just looking for our support. I help him submit an application to victims of crime.

“Be generous and give what you can do. Prof. Aki Mahara has to get through us in this seriously critical time when he was almost murdered.

“For those who live in the Montebello, Los Angeles area, please send me this information so that we can receive this information as soon as possible from AKI as soon as possible.

“Aki Mahara and his family were part of the Japanese Americans who were sent in concentration/moving camps in the Second World War. Nevertheless, he served in the US military and is a Vietnam veteran.”

From May 15th, more than 48,000 US dollars were collected for the target of $ 50,000.

In a text to the Rafu -Shimpo on May 11, Mahara gave an update: “The pain in the lower back that I experienced is serious and causes nausea. I still have neck and breast pain, my left arm heals, bruises and scratches everywhere.

“The preliminary report is that MPD was unable to find the home video of the attack, which is an off the car or the attacker.

“It is very difficult for me to do something now.”
