Growing up in Texas, people often saw our turbans and called us "terrorist." It got worse after 9/11.

I promised myself then that I'd do what I could to help introduce the world to Sikhs. Today, decades later, I'm thrilled to share my new book.

We won!!! Thank you Georgia! I’m honored to be your representative-elect in HD-97.

I'm incredibly proud of what we have produced. Undivided has been one of the most meaningful projects I have taken on, and this episode on Sikhs is especially meaningful to me. I hope that you'll watch it and share it widely.

[Simran Jeet Singh @simran]

I'm excited to share good news. Our episode on Sikh stories for Undivided is officially out!

We've been working on this project for a few years, and since the beginning, I have hoped for an opportunity to learn and share more about my own community.

I'm grateful to the incredible community members in Central California who shared their stories with me: truck drivers, farmers, community organizers, and more.

It was an honor to help set the stage for @simran at today’s Sikh Coalition virtual conference! I appreciated the opportunity to explore lived religion, identity, and pluralism with educators in my keynote before settling in to learn from him with my copy of Modeling Religious Pluralism in hand.

Grateful to the @sikh_coalition for bringing us together to consider how people’s stories can deepen understanding and enrich our classrooms.

1/ After five years of hard work, the book is in my hands. The Ẓafarnāma of Guru Gobind Singh: A Critical Edition, Translation, and Commentary is Volume 103 of the Harvard Oriental Series, with a preface by Wheeler Thackston, and is now available for pre-order. A thread.

I’m outraged that our government is calling on us to turn on one another; that our government is using its resources—our tax dollars—to foment hate; that the first people targeted by bigots are those who already live with the most precarity in our society.

The US Department of Homeland Security just posted this on its official account.

It's a racist and hateful message targeting Sikh Americans. And it's going to make all of us less safe.

[Sikh Coalition @sikh_coalition]

Twenty-five years after 9/11, Sikhs are *still* being targeted and profiled for how we look.

Millions of Sikhs in the United States have the last name Singh, which means lion. We remain fearless in identifying as Sikhs—even when our government portrays us as enemies.

Rabbi Angela Buchdahl is the first woman to serve as Senior Rabbi for Central Synagogue. She's also the first East Asian American to be ordained as a rabbi.

We had the most touching conversation about antisemitism, sexism, anti-Asian racism, and more.

In 2019, I interviewed @AbdulElSayed. We talked faith, family, politics, and more.

Today, he’s running for the US Senate to represent Michigan. He stands by the same values today as he did then.

In light of the attacks last night in New York City, sharing our latest episode on Undivided, where I explore the stories of Jewish communities in the US.

Education won’t cure us from bigotry, but it’s a good place to start. https://t.co/A97srl6cCJ

[Simran Jeet Singh @simran]

I've been working on a new documentary series about religion in the US. It's called UNDIVIDED, and it's releasing later this month!

I could use help with the launch. If you’re willing to support, please send me a private message so I can tell you how!

I’m a Sikh Spurs fan. I grew up in San Antonio and have lived in NYC for almost 20 years.

I love seeing New Yorkers come together around a miraculous run. Games 2 and 4 crushed my soul.

But I still have faith.

Isn't this what everyone's been chanting?

"Knicks 'n Sikhs!"
