Well ask your self are the Indians founders from the upper castes or lower castes in India? I read an article which states that Dalit's make up only like 2-5% of all the Indians who come to America. African Americans are like the dalits of india in that they have faced systematic discrimination which has probably effected every part of their existence for a long time, it is not something that can easily change with the waving of a magic wand.

Yes I think these are points we have to accept but many are not willing to. I myself come from a lower caste, although not Dalit. But I'm lucky to come from a region where caste system wasn't strong many decades back even (Bengal). But I can imagine, from news and other sources, what it might have done to my social existence if applied to me. I'm thankful to say the least.
