The project of wholesale distortions of the history of medieval Muslim atrocities in India ranks as one of the greatest subversions of the Hindu psyche. However, what does it show when even a comparatively recent event like the barbaric genocide of Hindus in Malabar at the hands of Moplah Muslims is whitewashed and more or less buried? Most of our history textbooks and other texts simply refer to this horrific mass murder merely as a "rebellion." This lecture attempts to dig out the real facts of this tragic genocide using primary sources and eyewitness reports and other material to expose the real truth behind the mass murder of Malabar Hindus.
