Getting Ready!

Hello!


Welcome the blog of the Indian portion of the Global Affirmative Action Praxis Project. This semester we will be comparing the intersectional nature of discrimination and affirmative action with respect to race, caste and gender in India and the United States.

This blog will serve as a record of our trip and discoveries as we meander through the subcontinent of India. On that note, please allow me to introduce myself as well as the other scholars who will be contributing to this blog. Camila is originally from Brazil and is the Associate Director for the African American Policy Forum.
Founded in 1996 as a media-monitoring think tank and information clearinghouse, the African American Policy Forum works to bridge the gap between scholarly research and public discourse related to inequality, discrimination and injustice. Noopur is a second year at Columbia Law school and is from South Bend, Indiana. Lastly, my name is Ehi I am from Long Island and I am a second year at Columbia Law School School.
