This is an interview with an American school teacher of
History and World Religions. It starts by discussing the
recent controversy over White Supremacy in USA, and then
applies similar arguments to discuss other similar
instances in history that are not being adequately
covered.
The main points discussed are:
1. Liberals in USA support removal of monuments honoring
white supremacists. I agree with this. But I wish to take
the conversation deeper and probe why many other similar
situations do not get the same level of interest. Are
there contradictions and double standards?
2. The history of atrocities against Native Americans is
full of horrific deeds that led to their
genocide/holocaust. But this is not discussed to the same
extent. Especially the role of the Church in legitimizing
the atrocities does not get much spotlight. Why?
3. The Portuguese Church Inquisition in Goa is one of the
very few Church atrocities for which the Vatican has not
apologized. Nor is this topic discussed by our supposedly
liberal media. American textbooks' treatment of India
focus on "Hindu human rights" issues, but not this. Why?
4. The Islamic invaders of India from early times to the
Mughals do not get exposed for their atrocities. Why
should the towns, boulevards, major monuments in their
honor not be the subject of similar debates? The liberal
scholars/media block such debates and attacks those who
dare to raise such issues. Why?
Are liberal/leftists being hypocrites when they protect
Islamic conquerors for horrible deeds, and whitewash
Christian expansionism, while claiming to fight against
White Supremacists?
How should we teach the history of such past empires of
persecution? Both discussants offer many ideas in this
informative and thought-provoking episode.
