Stephan and I were among the hundreds who were arrested tonight. Arrested because we are calling for a ceasefire, and an end to our taxpayer dollars funding the genocide underway. He is a Jew of conscience and I, a Hindu of conscience. Praying for peace.🙏🏾
Devastated that @GavinNewsom vetoed #SB403 and let down the batallion of Americans who fought to #EndCasteDiscrimination in California. A dark day for justice in the United States. Rest assured that anti-caste Americans will dust ourselves off and continue the fight.
Dear @GavinNewsom. It's time to sign #SB403. It's common sense civil rights legislation that will protect everyone from discrimination. Signing it will show that California is a leader in protecting human rights.
Today is a sad day for believers in Justice, kindness. Gov. Newsom gave into the pressure of the Hindu
American Foundation to veto SB403. What could have been a historic day of Justice is now one of the worst days in American History for failing to boldly claim to protect Dalits
I greatly appreciate #sumeetsamos for being a clear and assertive voice of reason amidst the ongoing misogynist hate campaign to discredit my work in response to my appeal to acknowledge my evident likeness in MIH.

"What sets apart Yashica's assertions of 'coming out' both in anti-caste discourse& in context of MIH, is that in the visible public domain, as a woman from Bhangi caste, she consistently made reference to the phrase 'coming out as a Dalit' w/an entire book &a long list of talks"
