“Formerly Untouchable” Castes // Passing While Indian
Manage episode 352044349 series 2956682
Dr. Lezli kicks off Season 2 of IDE Impolite Conversation exploring race as social construct with leading anti-caste expert, journalist, and award-winning author, Yashica Dutt. Yashica is the author of “Coming Out As Dalit: A Memoir”. The two explore Yashica’s journey hiding her lower, “formerly untouchable” Dalit caste, why "nobody cares about caste anymore" is laughable, passing as an upper caste Indian, and why ALL Indian cultural exports from movies to food have to be viewed through the lens of caste.
