Interpreting a graph

Hello readers, today i will review a graph for my ENG101 class and interpret it.

This graph shows the Anti-Islamic hate crime incidents between the years 1995-2008. from 1995 to 2000 the amount of hate crimes was at it's minimum only between 21 and 32, but then a large spike of hate crimes against Islamic people happened in the year 2001, presumed to be caused by the 9-11 attacks striking fear on the american people, causing them to be more stereotypical and increasing the hate crimes rate to 400+ people. between the years 2002-2008  the hate crimes decreased, but are still very high compared to the years before.
