[quote=CindyBindy][quote=Anonymous]How can so many people grow up and be ignorant of the Indian caste system? Is this not taught in schools anymore? is world history not taught? Does no one read? See movies?[/quote] I'm going to assume this is some kind of sarcasm. So what's your point? I don't understand what you're driving at. If your goal is to point out that the caste system is some kind of indicator of racial intolerance, all I have to say is, 1) race has nothing to do with it, and 2) do not bring up caste because I can literally guarantee you won't know what you're talking about. Caste is incredibly complex and not necessarily religious. Even Indian-Americans don't understand it unless they take a few weeks to read a bunch of books on it. You won't understand it unless you grow up in it, and, despite being a cause of social ills, it's not the rigid hierarchy it's made out to be, nor is it some kind of central force in Indian society.[/quote]
