"It only becomes a tragedy when it is white folks who were targeted and they are usually targeted by their own. You would think with Muslims being so "evil" and out to kill "everyone" there would be more of such attacks being done by them, yet it's white people doing it, and rich or well off ones, too. As for Christians and their feelings and thinking they're being attacked, I fuck their religion."



-- "Did you know that there are more right wing extremist attacks inside the country almost every year in the last fifteen years, with the obvious exception of 2001, than there are Muslim extremist attacks?" Uygur asked. Between 2001 and 2010, there were 1,712 anti-Islamic incidents. There have been 11 violent attacks against Sikhs since 9-11 where the attackers thought that Sikhs were Muslims.

RAJDEEP SINGH: Well, Sikhs began to migrate to the United States at the end of the 19th century. Many of them, in fact most of them settled on the west coast and worked as farmers and laborers. In fact, there were some hate incidents. Many people aren’t aware of this but there were actually race riots in which Sikhs were targeted around the very early part of the 20 century; the early 1900s. Notwithstanding some of the bigotry and overt hostility which they faced, they built very successful careers as farmers, agriculturalists, entrepreneurs, professionals. Many people are not aware of this but Sikhs have been in this country for over a century. We are thriving in the professions that we pursue, but unfortunately and ironically, we are still facing existential challenges in the form of hate crimes and other forms of discrimination.
