What is Hinduphobia? The Official Definition from Understanding Hinduphobia.

We invite you to take some time to read through this entire thread a familiarize yourself with the working definition.

.@parthparihar .@indumathi37 .@RutgersHSC .@HinduStudentsC .@hinduoncampus

We invite you to engage with the definition recognizing that we are not engaging with the terminology and its etymological meaning in a semantic exercise.

Instead, the definition has been written to capture the vastness of the phenomenon as it has manifested throughout the history of Sanatana Dharma...

...from the historically-documented attempt to eradicate the tradition entirely to contemporary rhetoric that erases those attempts...

...the (neo)colonial distortions and manipulations that parade as scholarship, journalism, and legitimate critique...

...including the attempt to erase or distract from the real, documented colonization and genocide of Hindus with imagined, colonizing theories about the history of Sanatana Dharma.
