Most Savarna professors consider themselves above casteism -- but tacitly exclude Dalit Bahujan students with abstract theory, alien pedagogy, gatekeeping.

Caste is not just a secret language of aesthetics; it is also the code to classify bodies as legitimate or illegitimate.

The Swaddle's Rohitha Naraharisetty speaks to civil rights activist Thenmozhi Soundararajan about her book, 'The Trauma of Caste: A Dalit Feminist Meditation on Survivorship, Healing, and Abolition.'

How organized fandoms -- the Telugu film industry's best kept open secret -- powered the RRR juggernaut.

The idea shapes the narrative that caste-based reservations are holding back development more than caste-based discrimination itself.

“One cannot work on the mental health of a person whose lived experience includes intergenerational trauma without understanding what caste-based discrimination and oppression looks like."

The practice of erecting discriminatory caste walls works as a way to socially segregate people and is a common occurrence in Tamil Nadu.

By co-opting and deifying a revolutionary figure, the state takes away from Dr. Ambedkar's radical politics.

While many have previously expressed shock and outrage about casteism abroad, the incident shatters the immigrant myth upper-caste Indians have capitalized on.

SC communities face violence for carrying bodies "across certain lands belonging to the people of the so-called higher castes," the court said.

35% of women also underwent physical tests by male doctors without another female in the room, violating the Charter of Patients' Rights.

Men from oppressor castes burst firecrackers and said "the Indian team lost because too many Dalits have made it to the team."

Some experts argue that enumerating caste has the “potential to be the beginning of the end of caste."
