About The Book: Sister India (1928) by S.G. Warty, writing as "World-Citizen," is a powerful rebuttal to Katherine Mayo’s Mother India. The book exposes Mayo’s selective quotations, distortions, and generalizations, framing her work as imperialist propaganda. Warty highlights India’s social reforms, progressive laws, and growing resistance to social evils like child marriage and caste discrimination. Defending India's cultural integrity and moral agency, Sister India presents an informed, reasoned Indian perspective, countering colonial misrepresentations with clarity, dignity, and a call for self-representation. About The Author: Katherine Mayo (1867–1940) was an American historian and writer known for her racist, nativist, and anti-Catholic views. Her most controversial work, Mother India (1927), harshly criticized Indian society and supported British colonialism, sparking global backlash. Though initially involved in reformist circles, she promoted white supremacy and opposed non-white immigration. Her writings targeted African Americans, Filipinos, and Indian independence activists. Mayo's work drew fierce criticism from figures like Gandhi and inspired several rebuttals, making her a symbol of Western colonial prejudice and cultural chauvinism.
