India has fought a bitter war against racist imperialism just hundred years back However now some times I do feel that we are also one of the biggest racist country in the world. It starts with our preliminary schools itself either with caste or color.
Questions like the name of the caste ( where the name is not necessary ) will be asked to fill the forms. Racial profiling starts at the age and never it ends.
Our skin color haunts our life where ever we go. Whether its partipictaion in a school event such as drama/dance or it can be career opportunies like acting or news reader. Your skin color dictates what you will be. Even marriage fortunes can be different based on the skin color.
How many dark coloured Indian can enter the field of action, its any ones guess.
The amount of seggregation we have and the amount of profiling we do makes me wonder are we not racist?
