Our Editor, Sushrut Jadhav @deletedalit, has been recognised as one of #India's 50 trailblazers who have given voice & identity to millions of #Dalits (people who belong to the lowest caste in #India) in a country rife with caste prejudice & discrimination blogs.ucl.ac.uk/fbs-edi/2021…

Dalits are NOT part of the formal textual religious/cultural caste hierarchy in India. By being considered so 'polluted,' they are confined out of the Caste system - hence the etic term 'untouchables' & now 'Dalits' - a self-ascribed term meaning the 'oppressed' - @deletedalit
