Amy Wax needs a crash
course on India!
Either she is ignorant or not well informed about India or her ego has been hurt at some stage or she is just jealous seeing the success of Indian Americans in America and Indians around the world. Indian Americans are doing well and occupying senior and top positions in different areas – be it the corporate world, medicine, IT, academics, business or technology. They have achieved success through sheer hard work, good education and merit. What is she complaining about!
Recently an American Professor Amy Wax was in the news for the wrong reasons. In a Tucker Carlson’s Television show, Amy Wax made some degrading remarks on Asians and specially Indians. This controversial US law professor has sparked outrage yet again, for her racist comments on immigrants, this time specifically targeting Indians and Indian women and doctors. Freedom of speech in a democracy doesn’t give you the license to degrade somebody. She needs to be condemned for her loose talk. One doesn’t expect such statements from an American professor. It tells upon her education, upbringing and mindset. Indian-Americans slammed Penn law professor for her remarks on Asian-Americans.
Either she is ignorant or not well informed about India or her ego has been hurt at some stage or she is just jealous seeing the success of Indian Americans in America and Indians around the world. Indian Americans are doing well and occupying senior and top positions in different areas – be it the corporate world, medicine, IT, academics, business or technology. They have achieved success through sheer hard work, good education and merit. What is she complaining about!
It appears she doesn’t know much about India and is surprised by the rapid progress, development and the Indian influence and success the world over. She possibly can’t digest the fact that non-whites and coloured people can be as good or if not better than the white like her. It all boils down to her upbringing and narrow view of things. She has exhibited her ignorance and pettiness to the Americans and the world.
For some people education doesn’t guarantee wisdom and broad outlook towards life. For them whites are only good at handling different issues and solving problems. Others are no good buffoons. I really pity her students who will be seeing things through her narrow outlook of the world. Hope they don’t share the same views about America. It’s surprising that an educated American professor, that too, a woman speaks such language in modern times. Is she trying get some publicity!
If this is the state of the mind of a professor in US, then what can you expect them to teach the students whose young minds will be corrupted with such vague ideas of hatred and racism with a lot of negativity and meanness. A teacher provides right information, facts and imparts knowledge to students and shows them the positive side of life so that they are ready to face the world after getting their degrees.
She also seems to have expressed that, Asian immigrants should be limited as the locals’ inability to compete with Asians. If she isn’t aware, just for her knowledge her ancestors too were immigrants when they arrived in America. Does she know how the original local inhabitants, the Red Indians were marginalized by them? Shame on her for uttering such nasty statements about India, Indians and especially Indian women and doctors on a live TV show. Is she aware that the American Vice President, Kamala Harris is an Indian American?
And the host, the punk who was laughing at her comments certainly holds similar views and allowed her to gone on with her tirade against Indians. Indians should demand an apology from the Television show for allowing Amy Wax to go on her outburst on racism. And in future, the channel shouldn’t entertain such educated jokers to speak on racism. Well who has forgotten the racist abuse in Mississippi in 1963 and the recent attacks on Blacks and Asians!
People like Amy Wax need a crash course on India, its long history, rich tradition and culture. She must not be aware of the ancient Indian civilization going back to thousands of years and that Indians were way ahead of others in different fields – education, mathematics, construction, science, astronomy, space, medicine, governance and spirituality. This rich heritage is a part of every Indian which makes them a bit different than others.

The joy of giving:
There is no greater joy than the joy of knowing one can make a difference. Giving is a privilege. It's one of the greatest contributors to personal happiness. It gives life a purpose and helps build good karma, making you feel empowered. It not only makes you feel happy, it also has a healing effect. In fact all religions encourage giving and helping others.
Your helping hand may have touched someone knowingly or unknowingly. Knowing or even meeting whom you have helped, and seeing them improve their and their family's life is a satisfying experience. The acknowledgement and smile on their faces have a true healing effect. It also makes you feel satisfied and gives a sense of joy.
Help the less privileged in a small way, like supporting education of children from poor family background. Or by giving things and gadgets you don’t need. It could be a valued gift to the needy. Like gifting your old cycle or an old smart phone to children, help them study online during lockdown and study from home. A small effort can bring about a big change. Empowering others to live their small dreams and aspirations is inspiring. You don't have to have lots of money to give. In fact you don't have to give money at all. You can give what you can, your time, kind or inspiring words or even guide them. And that means every one can make a difference. Enjoy the joy of giving someone in your local area and bring about a small change in their lives.
