India’s ‘untouchables’ and the violence of imperialism | rabble.ca.

Thought I’d repost this article from Rabble.ca, one of my favourite sources for ‘useful’ news and commentary.  I have no direct experience of life in India for the Dalits, the ‘outcasts’ of India.  There are other peoples in India too, the indigenous people, who, by most accounts,  are treated as badly as the Dalits.  Marx noted that human history will start when people can stop being so barbaric towards one another.  It will be a while yet, I surmise.
