Hi friends,
I just wrote this article on "Indians' Debt to Black America" in India Abroad Magazine.
It traces the history of Black solidarity with Indians and Indian-American causes---residence and citizenship, Indian independence, immigration & (effectively) civil rights---and calls on South Asians to express solidarity with Black Americans today, in light of the #BlackLivesMatter movement.
With everything that's going on in the US, there are some ideas that have been on my mind for a while now. Feel free to share, and I'd love your thoughts.
