What the heck man? When did he say that?

And even if he said that, you ought to know that there is no community that was permanently "dalit" or "brahmin" in Hinduism. Hinduism was always about social mobility. Today there are certain OBC communities that were once dalits. And there are certain dalit communities that fell from upper caste status in the past.

If you find any of my comment regarding dalits offensive, I apologise unconditionally.. I have a great respect for those dalits who didn't convert in spite of facing so many humiliations inn the society.

The word “Dalit” comes from the Sanskrit root dal- and means “broken, ground-down, downtrodden, or oppressed.”

I think this term was used for those who were economically down.

Karuppu swamy means black God? Do you give animal sacrifices to him? Is he worshipped by higher castes? Who is Amman?
