520			_a"'When two or more people find sufficient in common to call themselves 'us', they will strengtn their togetherness by looking for a 'them' to dislike.' - Indarjit's law. It's fashionable to talk of 'hate crime' as if a small minority of people are infected with a virus of hate against those they see as differet. It is not like that. Prejudice and fear of difference affects us all. I learnt about my Sikh religion almost as an outsider looking in to find surprising teachings on justice, compassion, and a need to stand up for others. Discrimination in employment in the '60s, normal and lawful at the time, led to my turning down a well-paid job to go to India, where writing under the pen name of Victor Pendry, I became a local hero to the Sikh comunity suffering majority persecution. This standing up to injustice through writing, speaking, and importantly, humour, is the story of this book'"-- _cTaken from back cover.
