In a recent thread on Twitter, Anjali Enjeti was the focus of discussion, but it quickly turned to the “south asian” elite who pose as the “native voice” for Hindu Americans. Unfortunately, these individuals are spending the bulk of their time fear mongering about the community they claim to advocate for. The issue at hand is that these elites are not providing real solutions or advocating for meaningful change in order to improve the lives of Hindu Americans. Instead, they are relying on scare tactics and sensationalism in order to draw attention to their cause. This type of rhetoric does nothing but create more division within a community that is already struggling with identity issues and lack of representation in mainstream media and politics. It is clear that this type of behavior is not helping anyone and only serves to further marginalize an already marginalized group. It also creates an environment where it is difficult for people to have meaningful conversations about issues facing Hindu Americans without being labeled as “anti-Hindu” or “anti-South Asian”. The reality is that fear mongering does nothing but breed mistrust and animosity between different groups within a community, which can ultimately lead to further division and strife. If we want true progress towards creating a better future for Hindu Americans, then we must move away from this type of rhetoric and instead focus on finding real solutions that will bring us closer together rather than drive us apart.
