This study analyzes the multilingual nature of the #StopAsianHate movement across social media platforms, revealing how it transcended national boundaries and linguistic barriers.

• Movement spread across 60+ languages with significant non-English participation
• K-pop communities played a crucial role as transnational bridges in movement diffusion
• Analysis of 16.7 million tweets over 14 months showed distinct participation patterns across language groups
• Movement evolved from COVID-related discrimination to broader anti-racist advocacy

From a security perspective, this research illuminates how online movements against hate crimes can mobilize across cultural and linguistic boundaries, creating global solidarity networks that enhance community safety and resilience.
