 Sikh Coalition

The Sikh Coalition is a Sikh-American advocacy group that defends Sikh civil rights founded in 2011 with offices in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Fremont, California.The Sikh Coalition, originally named the Coalition of Sikh Organizations of New York, was founded after three Sikh-Americans were assaulted as a "reprisal attack" after the aftermath of 9/11, at a time when the American public "began to equate the turban and beard with the face of terror."
