I have written extensively about the nature of India’s multi-racial, multi-religious, multi-ethnic, multi-lingual and multi-cultural society.
In an article on Republic Day a few years ago, I wrote, “We are a nation of all races, ethnicities, cultures and religions.”
Invariably a smart ass Indian objected that we do not have the black race, and I am saddened that many of us Indians don’t know much about India. How many of us know our neighbors?
Do we know what our neighbors celebrations like Ramnvami, Paryushan, Ramadan, Gurpurab, Easter, Khordad Sal, Ashura, Rosh Hashanah, and how many of us know the real teachings of different religions? Have we participated in at least 3 different ones? Socially, are we really smart?
India is really a very diverse nation, as I call America and India, are God's own countries, a cosmic representation of the universe.
The Indian Ocean remains virtually untouched by modern civilization.

THE SIDI PEOPLE - BLACK PEOPLE OF INDIA
There is so much more to us than we have been taught. Our history is great and stretches further back than we have been lead to believe and is not exclusive to Africa.

Declare that India is God’s own country, and is represented by every race, nationality, ethnicity, language, culture and religion. We see God as one, none and many; and in every form; male, female, genderless and non-existent, being and non-being, nameless and with innumerable names, and as Indians, we should not be biased towards any one. Aspire for an India that the world can emulate; a pluralistic democracy where everyone can eat, drink, wear or believe whatever he or she wants to in her pursuit of happiness.
