The issue addressed is ‘Presentation of Hinduism & Indian Civilization in California K – 12 Schools’.
Please spread the word about the web-site for the letter campaign and ask your friends and co-workers to participate.
If you have already signed the letters physically once please do not sign on the web-site again. Your name is already added as signatory.
The campaign is about the way Hinduism and Indian Civilization is portrayed.
- Hinduism presented in 6th Grade Textbook lacking in accuracy, factual content and sensitivity.
- Indian civilization is not mentioned in 7th Grade World History despite being ~1/3 of the GDP of the world during that time.
- California state standards regarding religion & ethnicity are not applied to Hinduism and Indian Civilization.
