Love has won over hate as Seattle has become the first in the nation to ban caste discrimination. We have braved rape threats, death threats, disinformation, and bigotry. Thank you to the 200 organizations who stood with us! Thank you to the 30 caste oppressed civil rights organization who spoke truth to power! Thank you all who called in and thank you @SeattleCouncil for standing on the right side of history! We are United as a south Asian American community in our commitment to heal from caste.
