What does it mean to be an Indian-American living in Donald Trump’s America? What does it mean to you when you realize that America is no longer the city on a shining hill but the old, bigoted Europe that once you had a chance to settle down in but refused for America? Donald Trump termed many Third World countries shithole countries in January 2018. This book is a personalized account of what being an immigrant in the U.S. from a shithole country in the age of Trump looks like. In an age of white hatred against nonwhites.In the summer of 1998, the French cosmetics company L’Oreal wanted me to stay in Paris and work for it as a product manager, one of the most coveted jobs in France. But I got fooled then. I wanted to partake of the Internet boom taking place in the States. And having already worked for six months at L’Oreal, I was sure that I wouldn’t make it to the top. In addition, the company had no equal employment opportunity posters plastered everywhere, unlike firms in the U.S. If they put something down in writing, they must surely put it into practice. How gullible I was! The very fact that they had to put something like this in writing actually exemplified how long and pernicious the practice of racism was in the U.S. And all this wallpapering was to save their legal butt, just in case.And so I returned to the U.S. when Bill Clinton was president. The dot com boom was in full swing. Opportunities abounded in the land of opportunity. I joined Dell in Austin, Texas, and got my first taste of racism on the job, which made me leave for Silicon Valley in a jiffy. George W. Bush had just become president. I worked in sales and marketing. I had met W. in Austin. He spoke like a frat boy, with his hands flailing. He didn’t know what a green card was. After he won, at a company meeting, I said, Watch, an idiot in the White House for four years. My boss, who didn’t like W. either, told me to hush up, that we didn’t discuss politics in the office.9/11 found me in rural Pennsylvania. I had gone there for a conference. I called my boss in Silicon Valley as the Twin Towers came crashing down. I had taken a clunky electronic device with me. I was scared to bring it back with me lest it be mistaken for a bomb. My boss said FedEx it back to the office. And then he said, this whole 9/11 thing, this isn’t getting over anytime soon. How prescient he was!I was stuck in a Days Inn in Pennsylvania. Every day I would return to my room, I found myself locked out. I would go to the front desk, who would say that I shouldn’t have a problem, but then the problem reasserted itself every day. Cleary they didn’t want me to stay. But where was I to go? Funny though that the inn was owned by an Indian, but he stayed in deep background. Finally the white women responsible for this prejudice owned up to what they were doing and let me stay for a week until flights resumed. One of them was even contrite enough to drive me to Philadelphia airport.When I returned, one of my bosses, who was Dutch, teasingly called me a terrorist. In protest, I started growing a moustache. One of my Hispanic colleagues would regularly call me Bin Laden. But I let it flow off me like water off a duck’s back. At least my Silicon Valley company let me work, even though it discriminated in career advancement. As a Third World immigrant you learn that many Americans think that they are doing you a personal favor by letting you in the country, and that because you have come from a “shithole” country, you yourself should be grateful just for the chance of having a job, a car, a house or an apartment as the case may be.Silicon Valley egalitarianism was nowhere to be found when I made my next move, to Atlanta in 2008. Atlanta is 49% white, 49% black, 2% other. The whites and the blacks are at each other’s throats. It is as if the Civil War never ended.
