Colonial Discourse and the Suffering of Indian American Children is now freely available.
Colonial Discourse and the Suffering of Indian American Children Book Cover.webp

In this book, we analyze the psycho-social consequences faced by Indian American children after exposure to the school textbook discourse on Hinduism and ancient India. We demonstrate that there is an intimate connection—an almost exact correspondence—between James Mill’s colonial-racist discourse (Mill was the head of the British East India Company) and the current school textbook discourse. This racist discourse, camouflaged under the cover of political correctness, produces the same psychological impacts on Indian American children that racism typically causes: shame, inferiority, embarrassment, identity confusion, assimilation, and a phenomenon akin to racelessness, where children dissociate from the traditions and culture of their ancestors.


This book is the result of four years of rigorous research and academic peer-review, reflecting our ongoing commitment at Hindupedia to challenge the representation of Hindu Dharma within academia.

Rajanya neevu brochinavu kanu kanu

Padalika deerchaka lethaa,
Kadalini munigina girinoka,
Koormamu kapadaga letha

Nadimi prayamuna Thyagarajanutha,
Na poorvaju patha theerpa letha.

English translation

Pallavi

Do not do injustice, Lord Rama,
Do not see me as a stranger , Rama

Anupallavi

You have saved many people,
Who have done mistakes several times

Charanam

1.Did not sage Jada Bharatha,
Save the little one of a deer,
Did you not become a tortoise,
Put the mountain properly and save,

2.Did not Dharmaputhra save ,
Those who came to trouble him in forest,
And did not his elder brother try,
To change the path of Thyagaraja.
