Some deny it even exists | South China Morning Post Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet South China Morning Post Media type Web Country/Territory China Date 28/12/2023 Description "Upper-caste South Asians, irrespective of their religion, are non-responsive to any discussions on caste oppression and deny that discrimination exists" - Jasbeer Musthafa Mamalipurath, academic. “Upper-caste South Asians, irrespective of their religion, are non-responsive to any discussions on caste oppression and deny that discrimination exists,” said Mamalipurath, who currently works as a media studies lecturer at Queen’s University Belfast in the UK.
He said Australia’s government “only” considers the narrative set by the country’s upper-caste South Asians and fails to take any effective action against caste-based discrimination because it lacks a deep understanding of it.Producer/Author Sonia Sarkar URL https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/people/article/3246546/caste-discrimination-legal-australia-home-over-1-million-south-asians-some-deny-it-even-exists?campaign=3246546&module=perpetual_scroll_0&pgtype=article Persons Jasbeer Musthafa Mamalipurath
