One correction:
I am assuming the red dot to reference “Indian” aligns with the graph’s term “American Indian” as there were certainly more East Indians murdered in the city than that one red dot indicates.
The red dot is therefore referencing an American Indian, and not an East Indian victims.

In Australia we have a very large Indian population (people from India). I’ve never heard people referred to as East Indian before. TIL.

Ya I'm 100% sure they're referring to NATIVE AMERICANS.
There are no "American Indians", that's been a big no-no for awhile now.

With 🔴 it is definitely native Indians.
Same as 🟡 for Asians.

Pretty sure you are also referring to Native Americans?
They uh... don't like to be called Indians. Since they're not from India. Columbus was an idiot.

Yes, I though about one thing, but type other. This map legend is kind of racist, that what I wanted to conclude.
Agree.

Don't think it's fair to accuse him of being racist, he's just probably ignorant.
