Another week, another attack on a #HinduTemple in the US. Even before the dust could settle from the attack in #NewYork, we see the same forces strike in Sacramento, #California. #Hinduphobia is growing exponentially in the US, primarily because despite repeated and frequent provocations, no culprits have been caught. Sadly, our lawmakers have not focused on driving attention and solving this problem. As the screengrab below shows, there are deliberate attempts to justify #AntiHinduHate in the guise of politics or "anti-India" speech. If #Hindus react, with even something simple like emailing, calling or meeting with their lawmakers to ask for help, they can be the ones accused of supporting "transnational repression instead.” We ask again, what does #FreedomofReligion mean for minority #HinduAmericans in this context, when our sacred spaces that should sanctuaries for solace, are violated with impunity? @RepBera @SenLaphonza @SenAlexPadilla @SacPolice @gavinnewsom @CityofSac @mayor_Steinberg @SacCountyDA @joshHooverCA @senRogerNiello

Hindus continue to be targeted and terrorized in Jammu & Kashmir. This time, a terror attack on pilgrims returning from a temple. And yet, in the current false propaganda and narratives on campuses and beyond, Hindus are considered the oppressors in Kashmir 🤔🧐. Thank you @PoojaShali for highlighting this.
