Dinesh D'Souza
Dinesh Joseph D'Souza (; born April 25, 1961) is an Indian American political commentator, author, and practitioner of Christian apologetics. D'Souza is affiliated with a number of conservative organizations and publications, including the American Enterprise Institute, the Heritage Foundation, the Hoover Institution, and ''Policy Review''. In 2010–2012, he served as president of The King's College, a Christian school in New York City.
Born in Bombay, D'Souza came to the United States as an exchange student, graduating from Dartmouth College. He became a naturalized citizen in 1991. He is the author of several ''New York Times'' best-selling books, including on Christian apologetics, such as ''What's So Great About Christianity'' and ''Life After Death: The Evidence''. D'Souza has also been a critic of New Atheism.
In 2012, D'Souza released ''2016: Obama's America'', a documentary film based on his 2010 book ''The Roots of Obama's Rage.'' Both posit that Barack Obama's attitude toward America derives from his father's anti-colonialism and from a psychological desire to fulfill his father's dream of diminishing the power of Western imperial states. The film has been the highest-grossing conservative documentary film produced in the United States.〔(Grady Smith, "How ''2016: Obama's America'' became a box office hit – and where it goes from here" ), ''Entertainment Weekly'', August 28, 2012〕
In January 2014, D'Souza was indicted on charges of making illegal political contributions to a 2012 United States Senate campaign, a felony under U.S. law.〔David Millward, "(Right wing critic of Obama accused of campaign offences )", ''Telegraph'' (24 January 2014); Daniel Beekman, "(Political pundit Dinesh D’Souza cops plea to making illegal campaign donations )", ''New York Daily News'' (20 May 2014); Jonathan Mahler, "(Heady Summer, Fateful Fall for Dinesh D’Souza, a Conservative Firebrand )", ''New York Times'' (24 July 2014).〕 On May 20, 2014, D'Souza pleaded guilty in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to a charge of using "straw donors" to make illegal political campaign donations. On September 23, D'Souza was sentenced to eight months in a halfway house near his home in San Diego, five years probation, and a $30,000 fine.〔〔
