Teotonio 

I have no caste. If anyone tries to assign one to me, I categorically reject 
it. I identify with
the most discriminated group - the dalits. I see the oppression they have 
suffered and suffer. 
Unfortunately I cannot do more to help now but I am concerned about justice 
which includes
fighting the caste system.  Of course justice begins with each of us and we 
have to rid ourselves
of our own biases and predujices first to the extent we can. Justice means we 
do not need to be
women to fight sexism, senior-citizens to fight ageism, chardo to fight the 
caste system, etc.

Regards,
George
