FREMONT, CALIFORNIA, January 31, 2015 (press release): Hinduism as presented in California’s current 6th grade textbooks is lacking in accuracy, factual content and sensitivity. The 7th grade books don’t mention India despite it producing 1/3rd of the world’s gross domestic product during the time period (300 to 1700 ce).
The Instructional Quality Commission (IQC) at California Department of Education (CDE) is presently undergoing a review of the states history and social sciences curriculum framework. This is something that happens just once in 10 years.
On this website, you can download various resources on the issue, as well as sign letters of support for changes in the Framework to improve the presentation of Indian history and Hinduism.
