FREMONT -- Longtime organizations that seek to rid the world of religious and racial intolerance have been monitoring Web sites they consider hateful since the Internet became available worldwide more than a decade ago.
Now, the Hindu American Foundation, led and founded by Fremont physician Mihir Meghani, is trying to follow those groups to win a similar battle.
The result is the group's 52-page report titled "Hyperlink to Hinduphobia: Online Hatred, Extremism and Bigotry Against Hindus."
Recently published by the foundation, the report says that exposing online hate speech is a crucial front in the fight against negative stereotypes about the Hindu religion.
