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.

#BREAKING! Rutgers Univ. Student Assembly, a co-sponsor of UH2021, publicizes its resolution recognizing Hinduphobia. Our hats off to everyone who worked on this, esp. @RutgersHSC's indomitable president, Prasiddha Sudhakar, who worked tirelessly w/ RUSA to make this happen.

Given DGH's blatant Hinduphobia and currently unraveling scandal around its lack of academic integrity and prof. ethics, it's the perfect time to read each word of this resolution, understand its significance, and make this go viral!!

By calling this act exclusionary, the conference conveners are demonstrating that their agenda is not just about Hindutva politics.

This conference is about erasing Hindu persecution.

Nothing could be more Hinduphobic.

The DGH conference description is filled with distortions and intellectual dishonesty. It's disturbingly violent. Look at the imagery.

2/
Look at the Conference Propaganda versus the facts. How exactly does this classify as "academic freedom"?
