Caste Conversations

Quite remarkably, almost everyone the world over has heard of the “Ancient Hindu Caste” system and somehow, almost everyone knows how unjust it is … but what if it wasn’t ancient and it wasn’t Hindu?

Almost everyone in the “Colonies” knows that the religiously sanctioned Missionary erasure of indigenous languages and ideas was a horrific chapter in human history, but what if it’s not over, what if it’s morphed into a new form, just as devastating and destructive, and what if the Caste issue holds the key to revealing it?

The stories which European Christians teach and tell themselves about their “glorious past” so often conflict with the historical accounts recorded in the colonies. The “Caste Concept” may be able to help us better understand how this discrepancy arose and how this colonising dynamic might still contribute in hindering the revival and recovery of indigenous cultures, even in the 21st Century.
