Anti-Sikh sentiment

Clipping of newspaper with article title: "Our First Invasion by Hindus and Mohammedans"
A 1906 article from the San Francisco Sunday Call which condemns Sikh immigration to the United States, conflating them with Hindus.

Anti-Sikh sentiment (also known as Sikhophobia) is fear or prejudice against Sikhs. Anti-Sikh sentiment can be motivated by an ethnic hatred of Sikhs or religious hatred of Sikhism, but in Western countries it can also be fueled by Islamophobia, stemming from a conflation of Sikhs and Muslims.[1][2]
