For over a century, the West has viewed Hindus through its own lens — first as mystics, now as misunderstood outsiders. In this conversation, Vishal Ganesan, founder of Frontier Dharma and Hindoo History, joins Roshan Cariappa to unpack how old prejudices have evolved into modern bias — and why Hindus still struggle to define their story in global discourse. The discussion covers the roots of anti-Indian stereotypes, diaspora identity, Western political framing, and the civilizational confidence needed to reclaim the narrative. ⸻ ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – 01:00 |Introduction & Context 01:00 – 06:00 | Racism Against Indians in America 06:00 – 13:00 | Historical Roots of Hindu Bias 13:00 – 20:00 | Indian Immigration & Assimilation 20:00 – 26:00 | Diaspora Identity Crisis 26:00 – 32:00 | Left & Right Converge on Anti-Hindu Bias 32:00 – 38:00 | Academia & Media Narratives 38:00 – 45:00 | The Role of Social Media 45:00 – 55:00 | American Exceptionalism & Hindu Values 55:00 – 1:05:00 | Representation & Power in the West 1:05:00 – 1:15:00 | Reclaiming the Narrative 1:15:00 – 1:25:00 | Faith, Philosophy & Pluralism 1:25:00 – 1:35:00 | Media Distortion & Selective Activism 1:35:00 – 1:45:00 | The Future of Hindu Identity Abroad 1:45:00 – 1:56:15 | Closing Reflections & Takeaways ⸻ 👉 If you enjoyed this conversation, don’t forget to subscribe to Bharatvaarta!
