The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

California State University (CSU) has become the first university system in the United States to add caste to its anti-discrimination policy. The decision will be implemented at all 23 campuses within the CSU university system. There is well documented evidence that Dalits (more commonly known outside of South Asia has “untouchables”) experience caste-based discrimination even in the United States. According to the non-profit Equality Labs, 1 in 3 Dalits in the US experience discrimination in educational space, 2 in 3 are mistreated in their workplace, and 1 in 4 experience physical and verbal assault relating to their caste. Prem Pariyar, a Nepali Dalit and CSU East Bay graduate, is one of the vital figures behind this policy change. He mentioned in an NBC interview that he and his family had to flee Nepal because they were attacked for their caste identity and for speaking out against caste atrocities. He managed to get caste protections first passed within the Department of Social Work, then at his university, and now throughout the Cal State system.
