WATCH: Sikh Activist VALARIE KUHR Says We Need More Than Resistance To Fight Trump

IANS, 27 Oct, 2017 02:15 PM

In the aftermath of hate crimes targeting the community, South Asians in the United States of America are on edge.

They have been asked to not speak in their native languages, especially after gunmen in both cases yelled, ‘go back to your own country.’ In these difficult times, it is worth going back to a speech from just a few months ago by US civil rights activist-lawyer Valarie Kahr.

Kaur gave a passionate speech about Donald Trump, racial tensions and concerns about the return of white nationalism.

'Policy wins alone will not protect the body of my son...when he is seen as a terrorist’, she said. WATCH her full speech.
