How Dalits practise untouchability

Criticising upper castes for excluding lower castes while the latter also practise exclusion is ironic.

In his 350 BCE book Metaphysics , Aristotle said, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” Self-reflection is, of course, actively promoted by most religious texts, including the Vedas and Buddhist writings. Social movements must seriously self-reflect and amend the activists’ beliefs and practices when necessary. Otherwise, their effort to transform society wouldn’t yield any results.
