US law professor uses expletive to describe India; netizens slam 'colonial' mindset
"These 'brown faces' were talking about racism and diversity in medicine as if their country was better or equal to ours," American law professor Amy Wax said.

University of Pennsylvania Law professor Amy Wax was caught spewing venom and hatred against India on 'Tucker Carlson Today', where she implied that Indian immigrants had no right to call out racism in the United States (US) since they came from a 'sh*thole'. Discussing the anti-racism initiatives of the Asian and South Asian immigrant communities in the US, the American neurologist said that 'these brown faces' were talking about racism and diversity in medicine "as if their country was better or equal to ours."
"Asian and South Asian, Indian doctors at Penn med are on the ramparts for anti-racism initiatives. You look at the raw stir of programmes where they talk about racism and diversity in medicine and you see these brown faces. You are coming from your country (India), which you are implying is equal or better than our country and you are telling us how awful we are..." she said, to which Tucker Carlson says, "people from there have no right to judge us."
'US has outclassed India in every practical way, they feel shame'
Furthering her racist narrative against the Indian immigrant community, Amy Wax said that Brahmin women who come from India and 'climb the ladder' after receiving every opportunity from the US, were in turn leading the charge on how America needed to reform.
"Here's the problem, they are taught that they are better than everybody else because they are Brahmin elites. On some level, their country is a sh*thole, excuse my language. It's not providing them with the opportunities that they feel they deserve, which they do deserve," said the American professor.
Claiming that this anger stemmed from 'shame and envy' over the "wonderfully developed medical and scientific establishments" in the United States, she accused brown women in the US of 'ingratitude'.
"They haven't managed to create this. They are very proud people and are from an ancient culture. They realize we have outdone and outclassed them in every practical way. They feel anger, they feel envy, and they feel shame. The role of envy and shame in the third world has for the first world is under-estimated. It's never talked about. It creates ingratitude of the most monstrous kind. I feel like asking these people why did you leave their country, why are you here?" she asked.
Netizens school Amy Wax
Neurologist Amy Wax singles out Indian women. Says brown women are jealous of American success. I think it's the other way around. "How dare these 1st & 2nd gen brown women be so confident to criticize the US? How dare they raise their voices? Don't they know their place?"

I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess she didn’t elaborate on how India’s history with colonialism contributed to their current state.

No one wants to apply to a school where racism like this is open and tolerated.
Your shame for not dealing with this "law professor" Amy Wax is going to be spread far and wide.#Racismhttps://t.co/G2KHfW2b7p
Interesting... Before the British invaded India, they had a 23.5% market share of the world's economy. After they invaded, they owned only a 3% of the world's economy.

The british PUSHED coal onto Indians. I wonder why she's completely ignoring the history of colonialism.
She says “…. then you come to our country ….” But is she not an immigrant as well having robbed genocidally the indigenous peoples land?

Does she know this is being recorded? Imagine what she says when she’s not

Thank you for making this wonderful video. This is going to be an excellent case study on how people with colonial mindset see India.

It will serve two purposes:
1. Expose these people, and a big false notion that there's no racism in the current USA +
