Obama, I Like you...

I was watching the inaguration ceremony of Barak Obama, got a bit emotional seeing a colored man taking oath , just reminds me how divided , this world is ! over race and faith . credit must certainly go to the American people for choosing a leader of Obama's calibre , and yet again setting a trend as an example for other countries to emualte the best of what democratic world has to offer. But what i see in india is a namesake gesture of not respecting intellectuals or leaders belonging to segregated communities like sceduled castes and tribes , only to mock at them and use abusive language against them seems to be the idea , that people of so called elite class of india have begun to use , Even a advanced society like America through affirmative action for societal change continues to help its backward colored communities in education , so that , they too have a diginity and societal standing in this hate filled world ....yet in india even after 60 years gone by, affirmative action still remains as a mere political sloganeering rather than a tool to empower ethinic communities ...Obama's victory underscores a point that a society that elects colored or individuals from once segregated community through popular vote can certainly heal the wounds of race relations, Obama's recent events certainly have a co relation with India , given the segregated past of Afro Americans and Dalits of India...its time we retrospect deeply with in indian system and give respect to all ethinic communities in india .
