The California Department of Education (CDE) has been sued for misrepresenting Hinduism in its textbooks.

According to Hinduism Today, the California Association of Parents for the Equalization of Educational Materials (CAPEEM) sued CDE and members of the State Board of Education for adopting textbooks that:

1.   included gross inaccuracies in sixth-grade textbooks;

2.   taught religious concepts from Islam, Christianity, and Judaism, while slighting Hinduism and eastern religious concepts; and

3.   were illegally adopted, since CDE held secret meetings to discriminate against Hindus and avoid opposition while adopting the textbooks.

Secret meetings? Yes. According to CAPEEM, they have e-mail proof that CDE held secret meetings with anti-Hindu groups while upholding church ideals.
