They are a bit behind on racism over there when it comes to Indians.

It's all mixed up their version of irishman jokes are about polish fellas. and Indians are bad drivers.

What seems to be happening is that there is now a second generation of middle-class Indian Americans who are pointing out the problem. The first generation were too busy making a living and getting on with sh1t to worry about racial stereotypes.

ahem....it was The Oval.
