CasteFiles Hails Rutgers’ Decision to Reject Flawed Caste-Based Policy Recommendations by Caste Task

CasteFiles strongly believes that caste is a sensitive and divisive topic, particularly for Indian Americans and the broader South Asian community. Its inclusion as a standalone category in university policies perpetuates colonial frameworks and impedes post-colonial and decolonial discourse. Furthermore, caste-based surveys, as demonstrated by flawed studies like those by Equality Labs, are prone to unscientific methodologies, leading questions, and biased conclusions.
