https://www.wuwm.com/podcast/lake-effect-segments/2012-08-07/expert-sikhs-have-long-been-targets-of-discrimination-violence?_amp=true Sikhs have a rich history in and contributed greatly to the Milwaukee area - as they have had around the country. But several sources have told us over the last couple of days that Sikhs have long been targets of discrimination and even violence, very much like the shootings at the Oak Creek temple. And while police maintain that they do not yet know of a motive behind Sunday's violence, it is hard for many in the community not to feel targeted once again. Trinity College professor of South Asian History Vijay Prashad says Sikhs have dealt with racism and ignorance about their faith since they came to this country, particularly since 9/11. Prashad is the author of the book Uncle Swami: South Asians in America Today and recently wrote an opinion editorial on Sikhs in the United States called "The Sense of White Supremacy" at CounterPunch.com. He joins Lake Effect's Stephanie Lecci on the phone from Connecticut, and gives us first a brief history of Sikhs in the States. ??

To be proud of your caste is not a Sikhi thing. Guru Ji says not to feel proud of your caste and do not discriminate others not on the same caste as yourself. We are all born according to our karmas therefore it’s wrong to feel proud of yourself and your caste or to look down on others because they are higher or lower caste than yours. Sikhs are not allowed to practice caste discrimination in most areas of their lives!

But you failed to keep strong pehra on your obnoxious mind replete with obnoxious thoughts and words that got expressed by your obnoxious tongue! You are nothing but a backward undeveloped munchkin showing off your fake beliefs and zero faith! Fake people like you should ask those vazurags to teach you how to speak in a respectful manner! ?

Yes, why don’t they?

Baba Budha Sahib Ji also did the tilak on our Guru Sahiban Ji’s foreheads on their Gadhi Divas. EDUCATE.

100 % spot on! Any chance of re-uniting again since their departure and 1984?

He was referring to your stinking foul language implying that if you can use language of those with ‘bodi or bodies’ then you can’t be what you claim to be. In other words, you are fake, therefore you should remove your bana and be who you really are and that is a foul mouth individual who is neither here nor there! He was implying that you are weak, as weak as those that have a bodi unable to fight back with those that were convert them into another religion particularly during the days of the raj. Guru Ji gave them Amrit and beard and kesh to fight against the unrighteousness like powerful lions and not like powerless ones with bodies!! So, what are you? A fake with a bodi or two or what?

It must’ve been your foul mouth and foul conduct that forced it out of him. It couldn’t have been as simple as a ‘difference of opinion’, in my view. In fact, your foul mouth is an indelible stain on Guru Ji’s bana gifted to us pure and serious Gursikhs, such as me! No matter how many times you wash your ‘so called bana’ the stains fail to leave. Therefore, in my opinion, your friend should have said to have two instead of one, one on each side of your head roughly about 3.5 mm above your ears but in line with your foul mouth and foul conduct! Two ponytails instead of one to match your filthy repugnant mouth and actions!

The United States has said the ruble's recovery is being fueled by "a lot of manipulation." The ruble is now trading around levels last seen before the invasion In the days following the start of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24, one of the most notable economic fallouts for Moscow came in the form of a crashing ruble. The currency kept sinking to fresh record lows against the US dollar as Western sanctions piled up, much of the foreign currency reserves held by the Russian central bank were frozen and rating agencies downgraded Russia's credit score to junk. At one point in early March, the ruble had crashed by more than a third. The ruble has since recovered and is now trading around levels last seen before the invasion in a sign that the initial impact of sanctions, some of the harshest in history, could be wearing off. A part of the recovery can be explained by a stronger financial position that Russia finds itself in thanks to a steep rise in revenues from oil and gas exports and a sharp drop in imports. Bloomberg Economics expects Russia will earn nearly $321 billion (€292 billion) from energy exports in 2022, up more than a third from last year, if its major customers, including the European Union, continue buying Russian oil and gas. Experts say the rest of the rebound is a result of the ruble being artificially propped up by the Russian central bank through capital controls. "The currency moves don't represent the fundamentals of Russia. More often than not, you see the fundamentals reflected in the currency. But as soon as capital controls are put in place, then that obscures the picture," said Craig Erlam, senior markets analyst at OANDA. "There's no way you can say the Russian economy now has the same outlook as it did in the middle of February before the invasion started, even if the currency would suggest that," he told DW. The Russian economy, which the IMF in January forecast would grow 2.8% this year, is now predicted to shrink 10%-15%. Artificial boost for ruble As the ruble tanked in the wake of the invasion and ensuing Western sanctions, the Russian central bank got into firefighting mode to rescue the sinking currency. The bank more than doubled the country's key interest rate to 20%, restricted local firms' access to foreign currency, and set limits on withdrawals in foreign currency. It also took measures to keep dollars from fleeing abroad, including by banning foreign investors from dumping Russian stocks and bonds. The ruble got another major boost when Russian President Vladimir Putin demanded that "unfriendly" countries pay for Russian gas in the Russian currency instead of euros or dollars. Putin, however, climbed down from his initial position and allowed foreign buyers to continue paying in foreign currency but only after opening special accounts at Russia's Gazprombank, which would convert the payments into rubles. "It's effectively just artificially supporting the ruble while appearing to be forcing buyers in hostile countries into utilizing the ruble currency," Erlam said. "It's like the measures that have been imposed on Gazprombank and others already in terms of forcing them to convert 80% of their currency payments into rubles. This further supports those types of desperate measures." Ruble fueled by 'a lot of manipulation' US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said the ruble's resurgence was being driven by "a lot of manipulation." "People are being prevented from unloading rubles," Blinken told NBC on Sunday. "That's artificially propping up the value. That's not sustainable. So, I think you're going to see that change." Ruble trading volumes have dried up due to sanctions and many brokers and speculators remain wary of dealing in the currency. This means that the ruble's current market price is being determined by far fewer transactions than usual. Despite the recent upswing, the ruble's outlook appears less rosy in the longer term. The Russian currency, which has weakened considerably against the dollar over the past two decades, is expected to struggle further as theWest looks to swiftly wean itself off Russian oil and gas, a lifeline for Russia's economy.
