We’re talking about the first Trump administration and I’m already having a panic attack, but of course this was published before he was somehow elected again, so this book doesn’t know how bad it gets.

Something I really want to know about the Indian caste system is why, with the primary marker of caste being one’s surname, why people aren’t just changing their names? It might not be that easy when one is living in India, but it could be a simple change when moving to another country. This is probably beyond the scope of this book
