Shrieking with demonic fervor, a mob invades a Roman Catholic school in Madhya Pradesh to spread chaos in their hatred of educated order. The persecution of Christians in India grows daily and yet the Church abroad is mute.

My first job as a lawyer was demanding unpaid wages be paid. Nodeep Kaur got arrested for doing this in India, beaten & sexually assaulted behind bars with no formal charges or bail! Where is global labor support? #FreeNodeepKaur

Those of us from minority communities justifiably wonder whether there would have been more accountability + outrage if there had been a World Wide Web during the #sikhgenocide of 1984 or the #muslimgenocide of 2002….curious minds can wonder #askindiawhy #HinduRashtra

Kuki women were paraded naked & sexually assaulted, human heads were put on the wall as trophies, at least 150 people have been killed, 400 churches are burned & 60000 people are in relief camps. As Modi in 2002 in Gujarat, his Manipur CM doing politics over the state's image!

On a house of WORSHIP. From Oak Creek mass murder to shooting of Balbir Singh Sodhi to the Fed EX Shooting to the extrajudicial assassination of a Canadian on Canadian soil, Sikhs in North America have never gotten a break from retriggering trauma. @RepJayapal @RepRoKhanna

If the logic is that modern agricultural practices and capital investments boosts farm incomes, then why after massive farm infrastructure investments already made should small farms in America/Europe be faced with demise? Sharing my blog #GroundReality .

It’s shameful that Modi has been given a platform at our nation’s capital—his long history of human rights abuses, anti-democratic actions, targeting Muslims & religious minorities, and censoring journalists is unacceptable. I will be boycotting Modi’s joint address to Congress.
