Dear diary,
My feelings at these moments are worse that I had imagined. I had never met people so bad as British. They took us every thing we love, our religion, our culture, our belief. In conclusion, EVERYTHING.
I think about our future children, they will learn British culture, not Indian, they will speak English, they will dress like them. They will consider us rare and they will tell us that our way of life is antiquate and unfashionable. Instead of fell proud we will fell dishonored. I will not accept this way of life, my son will only study what I believe is correct. And if I go to jail just because having an own culture I will go with honor. 84
I would like to intervene in something useful to maintain the culture of our ancestors. But I am just a writer; my only way to help is to write what I feel. The more people know about this situation, much farther my preaches will go.
I want to show to my people that the process of British colonization in India will destroy our souls. We have to stay together and think about how the Indians can fight against the colonizers. We are smart people, we have a strong culture. With Ganesh in our hands the victory will be possible.
I hope this catastrophe end soon
Sujata Bthatt.
