    Growing up in Texas, people often saw our turbans and called us "terrorist." It got worse after 9/11. I promised myself then that I'd do what I could to help introduce the world to Sikhs. Today, decades later, I'm thrilled to share my new book. penguinrandomhouse.com/books/623324/t…

    Why do we see Confederate flags on houses with a Trump sign in the front yard?

    Why do you never see an American flag on a house with a Biden sign in the front yard?

    Woman assumes Sikh politician is Muslim, angrily attacks him for supporting sharia. He responds with grace and love.

    My mom just joined Twitter and saw all the racist messages where people tell me to "go home" and "go back to where I came from." She wanted me to thank you all. She really wants me to move back to Texas.

    Racist woman in Maryland keeps black girl from leaving building, asking if she’s going to rob people. The girl lived in that building. This is what it’s like to be terrorized in your own home. 😒

    These black brothers saw a woman paying for gas with pennies and gave her money from their pockets. They had no idea that her husband had just died and she was struggling. This is what loving your neighbor looks like. More of this please!✌🏾❤️

    A racist in Wisconsin threw battery acid in a Latino man’s face after accusing him of being in the country illegally. The victim, Mahud Villalaz, is a US citizen. This is Trump’s America.

    A Sikh brother was just elected mayor of a city in America. This is a huge deal for our community. We've been here for more than a century and have felt invisible and neglected. Things might finally be changing for us. Representation matters. Thank you, Ravi. Thank you, America.

    US immigration officials picked up a 9-year-old girl on her way to school — and they detained her for two days. It turns out that she is a US citizen. But even if she wasn’t, the way they’re treating kids is unconscionable.
