“Caste is not a physical object, like a wall of bricks or a line of barbed wire. Caste is a notion, it is a state of mind. No one escapes its tentacles. No one escapes exposure to its message, that one set of people is presumed to be inherently smarter, more capable, and more deserving than other groups deemed lower. This program has been installed into the subconscious of every one of us. And high or low, without intervention or reprogramming, we act out the script we were handed.”
