00:00 Brothers and sisters, we are honored to have with us today a friend of Brother Steve Brown, a young man from India.
00:11 His people, Steve tells me, have been struggling under a terrible yoke. They have been enslaved like us for countless generations.
00:25 [Music]
00:37 The high caste must never read the Veda in the presence of low caste. If the low caste hear the Veda, their ears should be filled with molten lead. If they utter the Veda, their tongues should be cut off.
00:53 Educate, agitate and organize. Have faith in yourself and learn to be clean.
01:00 As a matter of fact, it is your birth right to get food, shelter and clothing in this land in equal proportion with every individual, high or low.
01:15 [Music]
01:33 They are brutally beating our people. Excuse.
01:36 Are you planning to enter the temple?
01:43 Yes. Our conference is over. We have dispersed peacefully and we always follow the law.
01:48 You say the British government does not show a change of heart. I say that the Hindus have not shown a change of heart either.
01:55 History tells us that Mahatmas are like fleeting phantoms. They raise dust but raise new levels.
02:03 Hey, we are running away with the rug. Hold them. You all hold them.
02:10 Suppose I accept Chaturvarth. What will be your interpretation?
02:14 Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra. Or in the reverse way, Shudra on the top.
02:24 We must adopt the principle that all men are born equal and die equal.
02:35 Unfortunately, I was born a Hindu untouchable. It was beyond my power to prevent that.
02:41 But it is within my power to refuse to live under these humiliating conditions.
02:46 This is an unfortunate decision.
