11 Sikhs killed, 11 more injured in attack on gurdwara in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Harrowing images from the scene. Absolutely heart-breaking.
Eyewitness estimates about 150 Sikhs trapped in gurdwara during attack.

"The gunmen started their attack at a time when the Dharamsala was full of worshippers." - Narindra Singh Khalsa

Incredibly sad. Sikhs have made Afghanistan their home for centuries. But they have been pushed out in recent years due to religious intolerance. Is there anywhere Sikhs can live in peace?

As tensions between the US and Iran escalate, so do the vulnerabilities of many marginalized communities.

A short thread on how this hate will impact the estimated 1 million Sikhs who live in North America — and how their experiences represent a microcosm of our collective pain.
Sikhism is the world's 5th largest religion, yet most Americans don't know about it.

While they are invisibilized, Sikhs carry a unique, visible identity including long uncut hair, turbans, and beards.

This combination of being unseen and hyper-visibility has proven lethal.
Upon first arriving in this country, Sikhs were targeted in violent race riots in Bellingham, Washington. At the time, Americans misidentified Sikhs as Hindus. This was over a century ago. Racist attacks have continued in the years and decades since.

A brief reflection on one of the many complexities around India's discriminatory Citizenship Amendment Act.
It can be easy for us on the outside to stake a place on the moral high ground and condemn the bill unequivocally. I have done so because this bill explicitly discriminates against a Muslim community that is already marginalized in modern India.
We must also recognize that there are suffering communities who would benefit from this bill. And that complicates things.
