Rahul’s Reviews > Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents > Status Update

Interesting comparing the caste system in India and the purported same in the US (based on colour). My second attempt at this book and I remember being struck by MLK's India trip, where he visited a dalit school and was introduced as a "fellow untouchable from the United States of America". The analogy can extend to FN Australians imo and caste is a more useful way to stress the rigidity of the hierarchy vis-à class.
