Another letter to the white men/women of the English speaking countries.

Hello white men/women. How are you. I apologize once again for sounding racist. I have cooked up a story for you which I hope you will appreciate. The story goes like this. Once upon a time there was a bus. Each and every passenger sitting in it were white people. The bus was full of merriment and dance and every one was happy. A brown man was running behind the bus. He was trying to catch the handle bars and hop in. He repeatedly missed the handlebars so didn't manage to hop in. He wanted to join in the merrymaking. The white men in the bus weren't bothered with his plight. They enjoyed themselves singing and dancing with every one sporting smiles on their faces. Now it would be wrong to say that all the white men/women weren't bothered with the brown mans plight. Some were. These white men got up from their seats and went to the bus gate. They lent out precariously and extended their hands to the running brown man and yelled. "Hop in mate there's place for all." The brown man grabbed those white hands allowing the kind white men to pull him in. "Welcome and have a seat," these white men said. And the story sends with the brown man joining in the merrymaking. Now folks, the gist of the story. The bus represented the modern world, modern western ideas, and modern western education, It represented modern science and a modern western high standard of living. The white men were folks living in the west and enjoying the modern world. The brown man represented eastern countries like India. He was running away from rascal governments, outdated religions, outdated ideas, high crime rate and bad governance. The white men who felt sorry for him and selflessly gave him a helping hand were the Christian missionaries who left the razzle dazzle of the west and came to the east to travel on bullock carts through malaria infested jungles to teach us good governance, and tell us about Christ. They opened schools, colleges, and hospitals and worked among'st the impoverished living without electricity like the locals.. If India is moving forward today it is because of their sacrifice and hard work. And yes. They gave us the English language. So folks, it is thanks to them that we can write novels in English. Here are some of the brown mans books which you will enjoy.
