Dear Colleagues, Do please read this brief report. What is it that leads people to subject others to such extreme and violent humiliation, i wonder? I can understand the historical and cultural conflict/s but simply cannot fathom out this vitriolic 'evil' response. Can we term this as psychological annihilation - to render the Other as sub-human? and since it is so pervasive, Ethnocide? Might you have any thoughts? and how might there be any possibility of resistance? http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/four-arrested-in-uttar-pradesh-for-assaulting-dalit-forcing-him-to-drink-urine/article23736514.ece https://www.telegraphindia.com/india/urine-torment-on-dalit-227488 Sincerely Sushrut Jadhav
