What if we could wipe the slate clean of colonial narratives and begin to learn and present our tradition in its entirety, with its important contextual nuances? What if we could examine Hindu history and dharma through archeological, genetic, literary, and sociological

Going to blame this “transnational” gangster from Canada, working in cahoots with Irish and Turkish criminal syndicates, on India, Canada or Ireland? 🤔. But we know better. This is the “transnational” threat we need SB 509 to address. @kbolan @VancouverSun link in thread…

Yesterday was another powerful reminder of the power of advocacy and unity. The Hindu American community was present in full force in Sacramento, in oppositioin to SB 509. We deeply appreciate @CASenCaballero & @AsmRansom's commitment to improve the bill so that it cannot be.

“He ascribed his longevity to a vegetarian diet and abstinence from tobacco and alcohol.”. That and running…quite a formula to have run a marathon at 100 years of age. What an an amazing life #FaujaSingh!

Competing in London in 2011, he claimed to be 100, though his exact age remained a mystery. “I run while talking to God,” he said in explaining his endurance.

Why should we be disappointed when @VivekGRamaswamy calls out the racist fringe on the left and right? . This is an example of putting principle before politics and we should welcome it!.

Very disappointed that @VivekGRamaswamy has decided to throw his support in for @ZohranKMamdani. This is a man who stood in a protest rally laughing as Khalistani supporters shouted “Hindu harami hai” (Hindus are bastards) and chose not to campaign in any Hindu temple or ask the.

Some symmetry: Many of us have spent rewarding careers building and nurturing @HinduAmerican and spreading awareness about anti-Hindu hate. And many, like @mukta_jo, are building careers, writing in Al Jazeera to @JewishCurrents, attacking HAF and denying that Hinduphobia.

What a week at HAF!!. Right after @MotherJones' nasty hit piece calling us foreign agents, @JewishCurrents claims HAF “misclassifies” hate incidents and advances a political agenda. Here’s why these accusations are misleading and ignore the lived realities of Hindu Americans.

American Gujaratis like me have relatives who were born in or have roots in East Africa, where 3 million Indians still live. They might joke about marking “African American” on college apps, but wouldn’t—they know a grift when they see one.

Would left-wing media outlets like @guardian @MotherJones cover a random, spurious allegation written by a right-wing law firm targeting a religious minority. Not likely. But when the minority is Hindu Americans, different rules apply?.

The shooting of a Hindu temple in Utah is finally garnering widespread coverage. Not a random event of anti-Hindu hate, authorities believe. It galls me that while we face this, there are fringe Hindu groups that actively deny Hinduphobia even exists.

In your worldview Mamdani should be supported because he’s “ours,” but his policies, or choice to campaign on Pakistani TV for a NYC election, not critiqued because he’s Muslim. Is there any limit to your tribalism and identitarianism?.
