Celebrating the Veto of SB403 Caste Bill : Our Journey of Advocacy and Awareness Continues

Dear Esteemed Subscribers,

It has been one month since the discriminatory Caste Bill SB403 in California was vetoed by Governor Newsom. We commemorate the hard fought victory which was won by grassroots mobilization, as much as advocacy work by our teams.

Our Advocacy work with SB403 and Beyond!

Castefiles not only participated in advocacy meetings with senators and congressmen, but our websites Castefiles.com and Castegate.org were regular reference for every single lawmaker as well as our volunteers. Please donate generously to support our ongoing efforts to dissolve the colonial caste tropes.

We will carry the torch not just in the hallowed corridors of power in New Jersey where it is cropping up now, but also in the educational and awareness building campaigns across the United States

The advocacy process in California has brought one resounding message – Yes there is justice and Truth does triumph! It is heartening to note that Governor Newsom was able to see the SB403 Caste bill for what it really was – a discriminatory target on the back of Indian Americans. SB403 was an unnecessary burden on the taxpayers, because as Governor Newsom stated in his reasons for the veto – existing law is adequate and adding ‘Caste’ to the Civil Rights Act is superfluous.

Important Articles from our Desk!

We cover important articles to highlight the veto resulting in the California triumph. Now, onward to New Jersey! Our most read article and most searched article last month was about the BAPS case, a case that has received very scanty notice in the media. Our exclusive coverage of serious writings will continue as we analyze court documents and keep you posted about legal cases in Seattle filed by Castefiles Director and legal analyst Abhijit Bagal, and other cases related to Caste and related identitarian politics.

Castefiles collaborates with Citti Media!

Castefiles also collaborated with Citti Media Castefiles collaborates with popular channel, Citti Media.

American Bar Association's Resolution 513 Exposes True Intent of SB403 to Profile Indian Americans

ABA Overreach Results in Rescinded Proposal

Exactly one year prior to the enactment of Resolution 513, on August 8, 2022, the ABA made another infamous decision to withdraw a contentious proposal. This proposal sought to mandate law schools to enhance diversity within their student bodies. However, it faced substantial opposition from law professors who argued that it would potentially compel schools to engage in racial discrimination, thus conflicting with federal laws. The proposal entailed annual reporting on minority enrollment by law schools, with potential accreditation consequences for those failing to meet specified diversity targets. The House of Delegates rescinded this "Diversity" proposal after undergoing three rounds of revisions.

The Threat of Fabricated Race and Caste Studies Driving Policy in the United States is Real

Concocted academic surveys have been behind Race- bias workshops shaming employees through "Reverse Racism" and a similar threat looms for Caste workshops as lawmakers in California ignore real-world evidence against SB403 - a so-called Civil Rights bill. If not vetoed by the governor, this bill is dangerously unconstitutional, singling out a micro-minority immigrant community. Further, it is based on dubious and debunked research by Equality Labs as pointed out by the court, reputed survey houses, and the Indian American community.

Caste Discrimination Case: The Real Story

"I was falsely accused of not offering a role to a Dalit, John Doe, when he never even applied for that role in the first place. That very role was also offered to another Dalit gentleman in any case, so that allegation had no factual basis whatsoever. That is why the case was thrown out earlier this year.

Furthermore, we paid John Doe millions of dollars, even more than I received as founder, & his response was to concoct a caste victimhood case against us."
