A great article summarizing the fake construction of “caste” in California, the inherent unfairness of how such policies were created + the impact on day-to-day life of Hindu American students & technology workers. #Caste #HinduAmericans #CasteInTech indiacurrents.com/constructing-c… 1/n
Article calls out flawed data used, even as a June 2021 study by @CarnegieEndow found majority of Indian Americans did NOT identify themselves with caste at all. 24% denied ANY knowledge of caste in their networks. No evidence for significant caste-based discrimination in US. 2/n 
OF NOTE: fears of the CSU students we at CoHNA are helping-who now worry about hosting events, catering vegetarian food, or even celebrating beloved festivals like Holi & Diwali – since both have been called violent/casteist by the same activist groups driving caste policies 3/n
