Imagine being a Brahman and discriminating against Untouchables only to relocate to America and get treated like an Untouchable.
Nice to see them getting a taste of their own medicine.
I once asked a brahmin to give me a hand to help an untouchable who was hurt, he walked away. I no longer help hindus(sad but true). I am now ex hindu.
@@borgsun9986 Bruh. That makes you no better than them. I'm a Hindu, but I don't discriminate based on caste.

That's crazy because Brahman literally means God lmao. U sure know a lot about Hinduism
@@ripinkhanna6075
I don't discriminate on any basis(did when I was a hindu) and I'm better than them because I' m not proud of what I did when I was a hindu.
imagine being one of the untouchables and feeling that you're "impure"... the effect on mental health man
They practice this mess here in America, as a ADOS American, never knew what it was with them, now that I know, they will all be untouchables to me, how disgusting!
@Patrick Bateman Correct, no idea we were put into some caste system. This is part of the robbery of our reparations. We can prove this, think that's why they wanted Trump out, his anti-immigration was helping us, although many do not see it. Have legal proof of our robbery.

Privilege is when you think something is not a problem because it's not a problem to you personally. I am a Dalit and live in a metropolitan. I face casteists often, most of whom are from the "younger generation", and so am I.

It amazes me how, as a species, humans all over the world manage to find ways to discriminate against each other. I really don't understand.
It is very true sadly. People want to feel they are superior than the others. In this case, they are the same Indian. 🤣
It’s not as simple as it sounds .. discrimination is one aspect of it .. it’s a complex social structure and not all is discriminatory
Finally, someone said it. Been learning about other cultures and it is astounding the drama each causes for their own people let alone another ethnicity.
It's just nature. Survival of the toughest, smartest, strongest, richest, fittest. Animals all do this, too. Look at lions. They oppress females, kill their babies just to mate with lionesses, who expect good sex every 20 minutes and the males expect them to do all the hunting work to feed the pride, as well as raise the cubs. And then the young teenage male dudes decide they want sex partners and simply kill some old male pride leader, kill all the lionesses' cubs and have a good age old male sexual orgy. While the poor old man lion just has 6o wander off alone, probably suffering dementia of all the rotten masculine power abuses he perpetrated in his hey day. And just gets preyed upon himself and eaten, even if his hide is pretty tough and sinewy. But, as humans, we could seek to rise above our animal barbarity, without denying we are still a part of the animal order. We are a bit more evolved, I hope... But sometimes wonder...
To rule over other people, sometimes this rule is not necessarily cruel, but very deceiving, that people are amnesiac of their true nature
In the 1980s, a university student from India told me that “India no longer has the caste system, just like the United States no longer had racism.” In other words, the caste system is still practiced, although not officially.

As long as India will keep the caste system, it will remain a medieval country.
Not medieval. Primitive.

@@lacdirk and follow your barbaric and uncivilized ways
They're poised to be a super power if they aren't already. They have a booming space industry and are in possession of nuclear weapons. I'd say backwards, but not medieval.
Caste system was abolished judged illegal by government years ago. The problem is Indians still practice and believe in it. There are murders relating to marriages or lovers of different caste members killed by their family. Even Indians in US practice caste system too. I read that one Indian working for a tech company in US was refused to promote by his Indian supervisors because he belongs to the lower caste. True story.
The cast system is evil and barbaric. How could you not imagine yourself being born as a low cast and how awful it would feel to be treated like that?
If it is PART of their belief system, then it becomes socially acceptable - that is the PROBLEM! It WILL NOT go, unless people REJECT that they are BORN to carry EXCRETA of UPPER/other CASTES (Brahmins, etc)!

It's really interesting how the arguments made against caste reservations are exactly the same as the ones people make against affirmative action here in the US. Discrimination really does only come in one flavor.
Affirmative action can be done on an individual case by case basis if required. Let's assume US has a black quota as part of its new DEI push in a corporation. Does Micheal Jordan's son or the Obamas deserve entry through it? Or can I claim that based on the color of my skin, I should enter a basketball team cause of under-representation? In my home state in India, 90% seats are through reservations. Each politician promising affirmative action to a caste-based vote bank; this has led to a race to the bottom. And another thing is with documentaries like this, there is always a risk of sampling bias; and painting everything with a very broad brush. More so, in a population of 1.2 Billion and some of the most diverse in the world. Can you stereotype every white person as a Jim Crow style segregationist or redneck racist?
Aqui no Brasil também, infelizmente, muitas pessoas contra as cotas...
As a South African this seems exactly like Apartheid
Which in existence for 2000 years
IKR
Yes, it does
3000 Year old apartheid & still going strong. A guy Lower Caste Doctor can't marry a Upper Caste Janitors Daughter. He would get lynched. It's this bad.
In America we have a Indian from a high caste bring sued by a dalit engineer on the job for discrimination. He said that the Indian team treated him badly when they found out he is from a low caste. That's right they tried to practice that nonsense in America.
The yoke of Slavery is not only physical, but also economical, and/or mental.
Why the 'untouchables' can't leave caste -ridden Hinduism?
Because , the moment an 'untouchable' converts to Islam or Christianity , he will be deprived of the ' benefits ' , which comes in the form of reservations in education and jobs.
These benefits are available to ONLY HINDUS.
@@nazeerpasha2075 nope there are untouchables in christains and islam as well. But yes most stays in hinduism just bcz of reservation
Exactly.

After watching the last 15 minutes of this documentary, the movie makes much more sense to me. It creates awareness, sadly it's got a very low rating.

Also, they don't use toilet coz they don't find it comfortable or Clean.

The Brits did not establish the caste system, they used it. Hinduism created the caste system.
Typical new woke nonsense, they try to blame their own shortcomings on the British. The British did terrible things all over the world but we didnt create the system or strengthen it
**With the HINDU-Nationalist in power since 2014 - this is NOW OFFICIAL again (though they DENY/LIE about it)!* The Brits existence was a BOON to lower-castes as BRITS wanted to apply equality in LAW/PUNISHMENTS/etc - *EX: the WIFE-BURNING-ALIVE (Sati) along with dead husband on pyre - this ritual was ABOLISHED only due to Brits in power!*

Wrong.. In west, your people don't do shits. They just work hard and so no westerner discriminates them.
But in other parts of asia, indians aren't very loved.
Tourists from your country and ccp are lousiest tourists (thats reality)
Your people century ago discriminated people of former british colonies while your people were serving british gov as low and mid class ranking civil servants ( Indians were second class british citizens and people of other colonies were like 3rd class citizens under british rule century ago).
Well you are the only society who served invaders (brits) willingly.
MillionS of indians served in british army. And they also served as low and middle ranking officers in british civil service.
This is reality that your historians don't tell you.
Well indians scattering around asia (outside of india) are descedents of indian workers imported by british colonial gov
Moslems read madrassa version history and you indians read craps written by loudy historians. So you guys and moslems are more ignorant in term of historical knowledge than others.
(I know every history book has biased facts though)
I went to high school with many Indian migrants back in the 90's. You could clearly see who was higher up in the caste system just by their personality. The ones higher up were outspoken almost to the point of arrogance. On the other hand the ones lower on the system were very quiet shy and withdrawn. I didn't realize why until much later when one of the higher caste members on my tennis team broke it down to me. This antiquated form of rule needs to stop especially in this day in age
reading your comments def reminds me of few rude people I've met. I wonder if this is why some Indian customers look down on me when I used to work in retail. they held this tone of superiority and treated us like we are their servants. At that time I just disregarded them as Karens lol. of course, 99% of Indian customers were nice.
Wow. This kind of gives me an idea why we pakistanis are usually seen as humble compared to indians. Because muslims too were given a lesser social status in predivided india. Everyone that has ever met us noticed that pakistanis are generally shy n humble. Today I got to know why. Thank you so much for the insight!

The most interesting thing about this to me is that I can see how this caste system sounded like a good idea in theory. When you describe the castes with relaxing flute music playing, you can kinda see how people thought that this would be a good way to organize society and make sure that everyone can contribute to society in their own way and everyone can benefit from everyone else's work.
Obviously this didn't work well in practice.
How the hell is this good idea lol... Its obvious with marriage, different gene bring different feature to child. There is someone with great art skill, there is someone with great math thinking.... And someone could physically stronk.

I think it was more to divide the society and control it than to benefit it.
You really think that a ruler from thousands of years ago gave a shit about their subjects?
That open defecation problem is a WILD public policy challenge to tackle. Such a big public health issue is directly correlated to an ancient and very inextricable cultural system. I wonder if anyone will find an innovative and quick solution for this huge problem.
Proper plumbing and toilets are not innovative but can be quick if they build it.
Good news is that this is solved for the most part as of 2023. Some people just refuse to give up what they are used to, despite the best efforts by successive governments. For example, even when bidets and good plumbing are available, people still use toilet papers because they are just used to it. The latter is still better because they do not soil public places, compared to some people in India who think public spaces are their personal restrooms.
Guess I'm a Shudra, worker, but I have my own mind and thus Brahmin, I have been in the military so I'm also Kshatriyas, I have sold items both as a retailer and made music and art so I am Vaishyas, I have both picked up trash and worked on plumbing systems so thus I'm also Dalit, I am human, not a label.
You are exactly what you doing because when you doing that time your mind and body is ruling you so we change our caste all the time only British cast system you were not allowed to change because they beleived in documentation
You are whatever you believe you are.

It probably won't. As the man said, he teaches it to his children.
forget it! Some of my 'urban educated' friends are into this shit. Not outright discrimination but they simply don't realize their privilege. Take for example the uber privileged dude with his fake accent who claimed the system is broken. He says reservations should be based on economic status and meritocracy. Little does he know that the fake fucking accent he has is because he can sit on his fat ass and binge Netflix for hours. A person who's family has been uneducated for generations, cannot be expected to perform top of the class. Wtf! Even my parents used to tell me when I was a kid, "The children of brahmins are intelligent". Now I realize why.

I believe the upper class & the rich (mostly) class are responsible for ensuring that the Caste system continues.
You are right! My husband grew up over there & has said it many times.
Especially in rural areas.
In the cities many young people are discarding these beliefs- but given the huge population of the country & the 25% illiteracy they have a long way to go but it is getting better.
I still don't understand how the caste system is very much prevalent when many of the Indian upper class are from lower castes. Like Indian President is a Dalit. Indian PM is also lower caste. India's richest man is also OBC. The Indian Government has hard time uniting a country that has multiple different ethnic groups, religions, and castes.
@@georgelincolnrockwell4659 Answer is simple . It's not about Upper caste or lower caste . In india the land weren't equally distributed , and majority of land are inherited to upper caste . Many similar things happened . If this thing weren't the case , than nobody cares . As majority of po population of india is under reservation , OBC alone account for more than 50 % of India's population . So it's not about Upper caste & Lower caste but it's about inequality & power . In India there where no proper action taken by government , like China does against their private landlord . In india this Zamindar doesn't get taxed , as they are classified as Farmer . In india there is no legal definition of farmer , it can be Person who own's farming land , and person who works in farm .
In Short , Upper caste people have fear of being treated as minority , so they will try their best to corrupt & manipulate the System of india .
By the way , I'm from OBC ( Lower caste) . And i personally don't care about their views & behaviour towards us , but only things worry is that they , have land & inherited wealth , and doesn't even get taxed .
@@georgelincolnrockwell4659 I don't think so , India's richest man is from lower caste ( OBC) . He is from least upper caste , or just at a edge of upper to lower caste . Yes India's Prime minister is from OBC , and he literally share the same sub caste as me 😅 , only difference is state .
Our president is from SC Community . He is one of most generous & leading personality , i have ever seen .
I personally hate upper caste people , as they committee majority of India's serious crime like murder , etc , comparing to that of their population , which account for maximum 20% . As well as they are likely to corrupt , as they doesn't related to majority of population , as they doesn't belong to hence they doesn't care about our condition , etc . So I personally doesn't want to vote upper caste candidate or muslim candidate .
@@georgelincolnrockwell4659 I highly doubt , that Indian government want to unit the country . As current ruling party came in power by hindu muslim politics .
And caste system will never end . Un less and until the inter caste marriage , become common . Like 1 in 2 marriage in india , being intercaste marriage .
But in reality only 2 % of India's marriage is inter caste marriage or inter religion . So you got the answer .
On Quora , Facebook , etc you will find people , who will try their best to prove , that PM & President are from upper caste , just to manipulate or from of nervous insight . As this people are likely to be from upper caste & have valgur mind set . Sometimes it's political too , like political party like BSP , SP try to influence the mass , by doing caste based politics . So they doesn't fear to question the person's identity from their same community in different political party .
It must feel hopeless for untouchables that even if the caste system has been outlawed, the people around them still believe and choose to follow that system and they have few opportunities to leave that situation...
Thank you for making an effort to disclose the truth to the world.
I have heard 'India's caste system is terrible' many times, but never learnt what it was or how it worked. Thank you for the informative video; I hope India can move past this system completely in the future, and move forward with a clean, safe, and equal society for everyone.
Amen !
In my opinion, “terrible” is a massive understatement
They may have abolished the caste system by "law" but it is very likely that those inthe upper huerarchy would not want to relinquish or give up such practise because it favors them in many ways ! Just like in many ancient societies where the "ruling class" lorded it over on the lower rank,those in the upper strata will not be willing to democratise privileges,opportunities and wealth to greater masses of people. Religion in this particular social setting is meant to control and oppress greater masses of people . Talk of "democracy" ,equality and human rights in India ?!
Why would we, it's great
Unfortunately the truth is that it is going to stay as long as Hindu religion is going to survive. It already started restrengthening after extreme ring wing hindu religious political party called BJP came to power in 2014. It was in decay for a few decades after the new constitution outlawed it in 1956 and a more liberal and modern political party Congress who ruled previously tried to remove It. Is a system which remained as a system of administration for 2000 years. It is not easy to wipe off such deep rooted social structure.

Where there are people, there is always discrimination. Discrimination can have various flavors originated by superiority complex. People just want to identify themselves special with whatever they may find. A rich black discriminates against poor black, a businessman discriminates against workers, shiya and sunni Muslims discriminate against each other calling each group special. A catholic Christian discriminates against other Christian groups although they all pray Jesus in different ways.

@@utkarshsingh8297 r u a lower caste? If no then stfu
I have a lot to say!
First off, the Brits didn't rigidify the caste system. It has always been rigid with no mobility. It's based on Manu's laws. The Brits only abided by it because it's deeply entrenched.
Those who say "it's only a rural thing" or "young generation doesn't care" are either ignorant or trying to cloak it. The young generation may not mind socializing but they will rarely downgrade in matrimony. Casteism in urban India is brilliantly cloaked. Check out top honchos in private and public enterprises; check out white collar positions and it's hard to find a lower caste person.
While the lower castes are lucky that they get to eat meat, the history behind this is rather dark. Back in Vedic times, animal sacrifices were common and the lower castes were called upon to clean up. They would use the carcass as food.
Also, in the Vedic times, every caste would eat meat including the priestly and warrior castes. In fact, the vedas talk about offering beef to a Hindu priest. However, with the introduction of Jainism the Hindus had to do something to curb this fast spreading religion with it's non-violent ethos. That's when they switched to vegetarianism.
The biggest insult was when the lady positioned Gandhi as some sort of savior of the lower castes. He was one of the biggest casteists of his day, who went on an indefinite fast to protest the granting of a separate electorate to lower castes/Dalits. Mind you, he was fine with other communities getting separate electorates. "Harijan" is just his red herring to hide his casteism.
I am also shocked that as the narrator and the lady (interviewed) spoke of Constitution, the didn't mention Dr. Ambedkar, the chief architect, the first law minister of India, and a Dalit who championed human rights and labor code in India and fought for decades to get equal rights for Dalits. Indians have literally written Ambedkar's name and work out of the history.
Very well explained
This is a good explanation for people who might not know what caste is .
Yes, I noticed this, too: the nonsense about the British entrenching a caste system that had ruled the society for 2000 years before any Brit stepped foot in India, the total white-washing of Gandhi's casteism and the total cancelling of Dr Ambedkar. A seriously dishonest "documentary".

It's interesting because it has "worked" so long that even with changed laws, it is still engrained in the peoples to follow an ancient social system.

corrections :
- dalit children can go to school
- caste discrimination still exists but its very high in underdeveloped states of uttar pradesh and bihar and other regions of north india, east & south india have negligible caste discrimination
- "56% indians don't have access to toilets" is the biggest cap

Hinduism is not 40000 or 15000 years ago its just 4000 years ago. And considering hinduism has adopted several literatures later in its history, its an invalid argument that the oldest form of hinduism is the most accurate one. By that logic Ramayana and Mahabharatha would have to be non hindu literature because they came much later.

Dear Dalits, leave Hinduism/religion. Hinduism is the stronghold of caste system. It was actually Brahminism, Hinduism is not even older than Islam.

It's the same in every country mate, you just divide it by socioeconomic standards instead...
Feel badly for the Indian people who have no way of making a better life for themselves. And I wouldn’t know about the Quran because I’m Christian ✝️
try to watch DALIT...
@wtnomad It reminds me so much of slavery in US history. ]: Maybe the Indian people don't own the people themselves, but the caste system still owns the dalits, and those with too little money can do nothing to help their living conditions or family due to the societal and cultural restrictions forced upon them.
a lot of Americans don't seem to know about this.
As a westerner I was always baffled by the caste system in India until one day I asked an Indian how one can identify an upper caste person from a lower caste person? He said, "Simple! All have 2 balls. Upper castes have 1 extra".
What Bout westerner who killled middle east innocent people?????
Does anyone know what style of music is being performed at the very end of the video? I was initially thinking hindustani but I'm not certain
Back in the 80's I worked on the Railway in London . I asked an Indian co-worker why he didn't offer to help other Indian passengers help with train information , or with putting their luggage on trains etc. He said because he was from a low caste.(Dalit I guess), they would either tell him in very abrupt and rude words to not to talk to them , and they certainly didn't want him touching their luggage.
How would anyone know what caste he was?
@@illawarriorhill70 I've no idea., may be it was his accent ? You could guess if someone was say working class . or where they came from if you were English talking to another Englishman, or maybe because he was darker skinned ? all I know is that;s what he told me.
@@illawarriorhill70 Maybe he was a lazy B'stad looking for an excuse not to do his job , and help passengers now I think about it
@@illawarriorhill70 From accent and name.
3:45 Can we talk about rats stumbling around people when they cutting vegetables. 😶
I thought I was the only one that saw this
Possibly it’s the temple of the rats. Not sure about the exact name, but I’ve seen a documentary on it before.
rats, cows, snakes are God there
Or with her feet less than 2 feet from meat and rats everywhere.
I think it's in the rat temple, this is why so many of them
I plan to come to India later in the year , getting some good info from the channel :-)
This is how the UK divided India and controlled it through the upper caste. This is ridiculous !
Through d@lits first. Upper caste came into power afterwards.
Read history bruh😂 large no of the Brahmins were killed coz they were the pioneer of the native religion in India and brit's wanted to spread christianity and they were unable to do it due to the Brahmins.
As an European, I find this hard to understand, pardon me.
well understanding discrimination of Romas can help
@@suryamohan3410 That has nothing to do with the Caste system of India. There is exces for personal development in Europe if you work hard, doesn't matter what race you are. But some choose to rob people instead. It is a matter of choices. In India you have no choice with this Caste system.
@@The25Sister you can be a dalit judge(provided you work for it) I think you're mistaking the problem, it isn't you can't change you economical or social status but that even if you did work hard and become a army general some ppl will decide how to treat you based on your caste and there are castes that were primarily for stealing in the past. who are still targeted like romas then again it's hard to see one's own problems. I mean I am sure you aren't broadly considering all romas as thieves based on old stereotypes. that would be ridiculous
@@suryamohan3410 Why are you mentioning Romas then? I say it again, it is a matter of choice. In the Caste system people have no choice, they are steriotyped for life as "pollution" .There is no such thing in Europe like this system.
Discrimination against Romas is kind of same system
This reminds me of the French three tier system in the 1700’s that eventually led to the French Revolution.
Actually Indian government officially abolished this system. But it's still in people's mind. Pretty much like Japan after it's Meiji restoration. Japan needed 50 years. We may be need 200 years. We r bit a slower than Japan.
Caste comes from Portuguese word Casta - means blood line
Lord Krishna himself was born in Yadav kul
Which according to today will come in OBC category
Even god is born in OBC category here.
@@rebeccaanderson5626 don't be fool here bro....what are you trying to prove?
@@rebeccaanderson5626 fake. Krishna had warrior caste. If he was shudra then I would never worship him.
@@admiralburger why even worship him🙄🙄
Casteism existed since Mahabharata. Even karna faced caste discrimination.
Being that this video is geared towards English speakers, is it too much to ask for English subtitles in the parts of the video where it's hard to understand the person's English? Such as the young man who begings speaking at the 4:37 time stamp. I was very much interested in what he had to say but I could not understand most of the words he was saying. The Closed caption is in a language that is not English, but I don't know what language it is, maybe German or French or Portuguese?
People like that sweet couple are the ones who are changing the world for better 😊
Actually in india we are very poor people
it's on it way out, our grandparents still care but the parents generations seems to not care as much like untouchability shit is over, another 15-20 years and we'll be much better
Been to india
@@harshitbasand3124 i know 😔 And the rich people deny the poor peoples existence, not cool!
@@homijbhabha8860 idk dude, wish I could have as much hope as you but with the rise of Hindu extremism in this era of the Modi regime I can't be too positive...
Few Indians seem to understand the true meaning of Reservation - it is for REPRESENTATION. Economic class is a completely different matter. Reservations on the basis of caste are for covering the lack of presence of lower castes and Dalits in positions of power. Note ANY institution - educational, political, journalistic, corporate - you will find UCs disproportionately represented. But none of these comfortable middle class UC people want to confront this. Why? Because they don't want to lose their privilege and power.
Guess they need to control the ones with the real power in ensuring society can operate at all. The poor working classes.
Lol I can bet you don't even know the real issue the general category is facing
So....I study for 6 years for a job to get beaten by a reservation-dude because of his birth privilege? He isn't even poor!
@Travis Bickle a hardworking and poor forward caste person scoring 98 percent out of 100 percent is still not getting his / her Desired college but a reserved person scoring 60 percent is getting the same. Therefore, it demotivates 220 million forward caste people living in the country and makes them second class citizens. Only Top 1 percent of those 220 million forward caste are rich & aristocratic the remaining forward caste is struggling in local buses & local trains, doing menial jobs, working as underpaid slaves of Multinational corporates, etc. The biggest irony is that the person who introduced the reservation system for SC / ST strictly warned the Constituent Assembly that this reservation system is temporary and should not extend for more 10-20 years maximum otherwise it would become a mere shortcut and appeasement tool for rich politicians who are already sitting in power. Unfortunately that happened.
Sanskrit is not an old language - the languages that were old in the North Indian subcontinent were Prakrit and Pali languages. There is a huge amount of confusion about Prakrit languages. There are 12 major North Indian languages 1, Apabhraṃśa (Prakrit); 2. Ardhamagadhi(Prakrit); 3. Dramili (oldest Prakrit); 4. Elu; 5. Gandhari; 6. Kamarupi; 7. Magadhi; 8. Maharashtri; 9. Paishachi; 10. Pali (also mentioned as Prakrit by some kingdoms); 11. Shauraseni; 12. Khasa. But each language is different and a few are referred to as Prakrit language at different times especially the Dramili is the language used in the Ashoka edicts as Prakrit language which is the oldest written record for Pali and Prakrit. Ancient India used Pali and Prakrit languages in Jainism and Buddhist literature. Sanskrit is a new language that was created by refining, merging, and choosing grammar and verbiage of all these 12 major languages- that’s why there is no record of written Sanskrit in ancient monuments or Jainism and Pali literature which were the oldest religions of Ancient India. Hence the claim that Sanskrit is old is not proven because of this and even though Rig Veda was first written down in the 14th century AD all claims are only verbal and they wrongly point to the written literature records of Prakrit or Pali languages as Sanskrit. Hindi was formed much later by choosing the largest spoken dialect of Prakrit in present-day Uttar Pradesh. So it is very clear that anything written in Sanskrit is newly written literature after Sanskrit was formed. So the caste system and its ideology were written only in Sanskrit language texts such as Manusmriti which describes and ranks four varnas, and prescribes their occupations, requirements, and duties, or Dharma - has come into India by migrants that created Sanskrit and wanted to benefit from this fascism. This system later was supported by foreign invaders and European colonists to divide and rule the region’s population. As the - self-proclaimed high caste - Brahmins wanted to show that they were also a native to the Indian subcontinent and not of Indo-European origin like their languages, they claimed Sanskrit to be an older language and newly drafted caste texts as old well.
