I visited Monroeville, PA to warn that HSS (the US wing of India’s fascist RSS paramilitary) may approach them. Then HSS did just that and Mayor Dr. Nick Gresock immediately caved, promising HSS that “we support you.”

Why are mayors of small towns in the US making pledges to back Hindu fascist-aligned organizations like the Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh who openly call for the subjugation of Christian and Muslim minorities in India? What do you have to say for yourself, Dr. Nick Gresock?
If you would like to contact Mayor Nick Gresock to politely and respectfully request him to please look into the connection between HSS and RSS, please consider calling him at 412-856-3300 or emailing him at [email protected].
🧵I was reminded of this incident yesterday and still shocked, this may have been the 1 time I’ve ever seen Bhavini Patel in a community like Homewood.
My opinion, it damn sure didn’t do her any justice because it highlighted who and what she’s aligned with.

HSS *is* RSS : we know that.
...please do consider Pieter Friedrich 's request.
It was great to drop in on the podcast of legendary activist/writer Pieter Friedrich. Our extended discussion of Savera: United Against Supremacy's groundbreaking report on the VHPA (the Hindu fascist's apex organization in the US) and my recent piece in Truthout on the same starts ~ 20 mins in!
Delighted to spend time interviewing Samantha Agarwal (she/they) about her work with Adivasis (tribal) people in India, the intersection of caste and Hindu nationalism, VHP America, and much more. Take a listen, rate, review, and follow.
