The Untouchables - 57 min documentary

24 May 2007
The dalits are India's outcasts, condemned from birth by a rigid caste system. They live in constant fear of arson, beatings and worse inflicted on them by social superiors desperate to protect their caste privileges. These are the poorest of India's poor. The untouchables. Pawns in a power struggle being waged in India's Hindu heartland. Poverty stricken, powerless, and under attack from every quarter, many dalits are turning to Communist guerrillas for help. But the battles are only getting bloodier.

Amazing how the higher caste indians living in the western world cry racism while still believing they are superior from birth over others. The caste system must be outlawed in the west to humble these liers and hipocrites.

Do you know that hindu men in the USA sell their wives to truck drivers from the motels they run on Interstate 95 heading toward Florida?You must have seen lord Shiva has lord Vishnu trapped in to his hair and this took place when Vishnu lund was in Shiva's mouth and shiva with treachery trapped him in his hair and made chutiya of all Hindus telling them that it is Ganga in his hair .... so..Haaahh... in your face !

Bodhidharma tought the Chinese medicine and Kong Fu coz he did not like to share with Indian as indians are highly obsess with caste.If indian learnt kongfu, kongfu would have been used beat up lower rank caste.If they have learnt medicine,there would have been another additional caste called "medicine caste". See now how the chinese prospered through BodhiDharma teachings.If he had thought to indians, India would have been a more messy with caste problems.Most concentrations spent on caste.

Dalits need to unite.why are you begging behind a relegion which describes you as a creation from some gods ass or penis. Trust me, hindhus are most violent people on earth.
