Anthropologist Arjun Appadurai (2020), critiquing her, remarks: ‘either India has no underlying social programme, grammar and theory, and its social world is simply caste all the way up and down (something I doubt), Caste, The Origins of Our Discontents: A Historical Reflection on Two Cultures 19 or Wilkerson’s dramatic unearthing of caste under the surface of race in the US is just a literary device to tell a familiar American story in an unfamiliar way and is not based on a genuine similarity.’	cache/caste-308.pdf	txt/caste-308.txt
