It was about 11 pm last night, and I was walking back home from a friend’s
place. It’s dark, and the street is not crowded. I cross the street and continue
to walk. I hear a voice.
”Boy!”
Against my will I turn back.
”Yeah, you BOY!” he yells from his rusty Ford pickup truck, stopped at the traffic signal.
”This is for you, you fucking jihadi.”
The beer bottle lands 6 feet from where I stand, somewhat paralyzed.
I turn back, and walk away briskly.
This has happened to me many, many times. And each and every time, I have the same feelings of fear (terror?), contempt, confusion and anger.

uh that can't be pleasant... jihadi seems a new one - the favourite in the UK used to be Paki... so abuse vocabulary is in tune with the times too...
No one called me a Jihadi, but I've been called an Indian drug dealer in San Francisco.
Hi Sunil
I really wish that had not happened. There are a lot of people in the US and some of them aren't very nice.
Is this xenophobia or is this racial hatred? In any case, sad.
creepy.
Uma -- Perhaps Jerry Rao's next column might justify these abuses too!
Sunil -- Take care.
Ok, now, I know you have a beard...but how come you never wrote from right-to-left. The lang. in which all jihadis write. I am guessing you are a modern jihadi ..the doctor/engineer type.
I'll have something more on this. You take care.
anand - most probably! now you've got me thinking...maybe i'll have a post about it soon.
and sunil - i think my mom has sent you a reply!
take care, sunil.
Sunil, I'm thinking, I might just have tried this: pick up the bottle (or the biggest piece, if it broke) and sweetly hand it back, saying sweetly "You dropped this, dude!"
Nothing quite like making fun of the goons.
Though if he gets out ratcheting a gun, all bets are off.
In an Austin restaurant (Suhail, Pizza Hut on Guadalupe), a weaselly looking guy once threatened us with a knife, saying "I hate you Hindus! I'm going to kill you! I hate Hinduism!" When I stood up from my seat, he slunk away. By the time we got a cop, he had simply vanished.
I felt rather like the Biharis do, who get beaten up by brave sons-of-the-soil when they travel to Bombay to take an exam.
Thank you all for your comments.
It was a bit unnerving....but I view this as an one-off incident....and it largely is the exception and not the rule.....
Sad though that there's so much paranoia (i've talked about it a little in my latest post also)
This was a bit chilling, and beautifully written. We liked it so much that we borrowed the post for a bit, to be read by actors over the radio on "Blogsday," an hour-long collection of posts written over the course of a single day. You can have it back now, but you can listen to the whole program here.
(Open Source is a public radio show, based in Boston and nationally broadcast, that is trying to capture the sound of the web.)
We like how the hour turned out. Let us know what you think.
Brendan.....thanks for letting me know about this!
I listen to a lot of open source, and especially enjoyed the recent interview of Amitav Ghosh. A lot of my collegues listen to open source at work (over the internet)....its open source or NPR usually :-)
Simple yaar. Return to India.
Came here from AnTi's blog. Where did this happen? In Seattle?

No prescription generic drugs RX
Unlike generic drugs, a large part of the costs incurred by original manufacturers of brand name drugs are for research and development and advertising. The expense of obtaining FDA approval alone in the U.S. is enormous. Manufacturers of generic drugs do not have to absorb or recover these costs. Consequently, significant cost savings can be passed along to you.
