Apparently @DNC coordinators are blocking #IndianAmericans who point out that "South Asian" is offensive to them as a racist term of cultural erasure.
So much defence of White privilege, eh @DNCWarRoom? Does @ehammai represent your values?

Most people will stop using the term "South Asian" if we point out that it is offensive to #IndianAmericans. They don't mean to be offensive, just don't know. We need to speak up .
It is only entrenched bigots and academic sepoys in the "South Asian Studies" ghetto who insist on the term, with an agenda of erasure. We need to call their bluff. Please share the article widely.

Hypocrisy @SenatorMenendez! You supported & named the Lautenberg Amendment giving fast-track asylum to only Jews and Evang. Christians from certain countries. Now you condemn India for fast-tracking persecuted Hindus #CAA. Perplexing double-standard.(1/n)

@SenatorMenendez #CAA: fast-tracks only those persecuted minorities in India as of 2014.
Lautenberg: Not only indefinite, but added Iranian Jews, Christian, Bahai (excluding Muslims). Why not Iranian Sunnis? Zoroastrians?
Is Lautenberg anti-Muslim, as you deem #CAA?

@SenatorMenendez What about #atheists or ex-Muslims? Didn't they deserve LA protection? #CAA would be improved with neutral language hafsite.org/india-citizens…. LA too. @SenatorMenendez's targeting India is ill-informed. A million #IndianAmericans in New Jersey deserve better and will take note.
