Everybody Hates Chris is an American period sitcom (television show) that is based on the troubled teenage experiences of comedian Chris Rock during the 1980s. The show's title parodies the hit CBS sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond.
Everybody Hates Chris received critical acclaim. The American Film Institute selected Everybody Hates Chris as one of the best 10 television series, stating that the show "provides a very real look at growing up in America – a challenge that demands a discussion of race and class often absent from television today." Everybody Hates Chris took an extremely serious issue of race abuse and approached it in a humorous yet thought-provoking way. It was innovative, funny, and stereotype-defying – enjoyed by teens and their parents.
The show was one of the defining narratives of evolution of the American society as a open society, accepting all races of human society without discrimination.
The victim of character assassination is imprisoned in a hatred prison forever
The victim of character assassination is imprisoned in a hatred prison, where he cannot have decent survival and his dignity and integrity is destroyed once for all. They are replaced with defense and self explanatory attitude.
During 1930s the identity of Jews was character assassinated by the Nazi State. Jews were projected as an inferior race, unworthy of living. However this is not the first time character of a community had been assassinated to justify their persecution. Much before the Jews, it was done against the Adi-Shaiva community of Northern India Kashmir Region.
Character assassination of the "Kashmiri identity"
In 1389-1413, Sultan Sikandar imposed taxes on non–Muslims, forced conversions to their religion, and earned the title 'But–Shikan' for destroying idols. During his era, being "Kashmiri" - "a native, aboriginal of Kashmir" was considered an unworthy existence, it was used to segregate and persecute the Adi-Shaiva community. Quiet in a U-turn in 1990, the "native, aboriginal of Kashmir" were brutally forced out of Kashmir, in a justification propaganda called, "Kashmiriyat", which termed Adi-Shaiva community as non-Kashmiri.
Origin of the word Kashmir - Sapta Rishi Kashyap
According to folk etymology, the name "Kashmir" means "desiccated land" (from the Sanskrit: Ka = water and shimeera = desiccate). In the Rajatarangini, a history of Kashmir written by Kalhana in the mid-12th century, it is stated that the valley of Kashmir was formerly a lake.
Rajatarangini (Rājataraṃgiṇī , "The River of Kings") is a metrical legendary and historical chronicle of the north-western kings of Kashmir. It was written in Sanskrit by historian Kalhana in the 12th century CE.
According to Hindu cosmic history, the lake was drained by the great Rishi or sage, Kashyapa (on whom the valley has it's name) , son of Marichi, son of Brahma, by cutting the gap in the hills at Baramulla (Varaha-mula). When Kashmir had been drained, Kashyapa asked Brahmins to settle there. The name of Kashyapa is by history and tradition connected with the draining of the lake, and the chief town or collection of dwellings in the valley was called Kashyapa-pura, which has been identified with Kaspapyros of Hecataeus (by Stephanus of Byzantium a 6th century AD Greek author
of an important geographical dictionary) and Kaspatyros of Herodotus (3.102, 4.44) according Kashmir is also believed to be the country meant by Ptolemy's Kaspeiria.
Segregation and isolation of the "Kashmiri identity"
Adi-Shaiva practise in Kashmir was labeled as Kashmiri Shaivism . It started in 1400s. Adi-Shaivism, as per original ancient VedaAgama tradition was practised throughout the Indian subcontinent across different islands of Southeast Asia. For

example, the original Agama scriptures followed for construction of temples in Kashmir were also used for construction of Angkor Wat and Baphuon temples in Cambodia (4,161 kilometers far away). Angkor Wat and Baphuon temples are the largest religious structures in the world. One wall of stone carving is 2 kilometers long. Several much temples in India were destroyed and mutilated during the foreign invasions.
Even after the death of the persecutor, the Kashmiri propaganda remains alive
Although initially, during 1400s the - Kashmiri - identity was created to persecute the "Adi-Shaivas" and other ancient native minority communities by the invaders. In a U-turn it became a reason to call them non-natives and build a justification propaganda (just the complete opposite of the original propaganda) to kill them again.
Kashmiriyat - U-turn of the propaganda to justify Crimes against Humanity
In 1990, the Adi-Shaivas were suddenly labeled as non-Kashmiris. They were displaced from their houses and massacred in a genocide. The justifying propaganda for this was called - Kashmiriyat. Kashmiriyat justification propaganda termed Adi-Shaivas as an alien community.
