Description

Firstpost is holding a series of conversations with Indians and Americans of Indian origin in the USA, from its campuses, offices and households, to understand how caste discrimination pervades the community just as much as it does back home in India. Hosted by Thenmozhi Soundararajan, Dalit rights activist, artist, technologist and executive director of Equality Labs, the podcast cracks taboos about caste among the Indian community in the USA.
