Dalit People in India

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/20/AR2007062002535.html

Dalit people in India and the way they are treated for being considered as a lower caste, was also in a documentary today on the BBC. Shocking, torturous, inhumane. The words don't even do justice to describe it. Feeling really down and sad about this, and helpless, what could I possibly do to help?

The legacy of colonialism is evident both in India and in the beginnings of apartheid, and the feeling remains the same.

Heart breaking, and still no justice.
