DESCRIPTION:Sun, Jun 7, 2020: 10:30 am to 12:30 pm\nOrigin and Evolution of Varna-Caste 
 System \nand Its Articulation with Class Dynamics\n\nWhat is Caste? How did 
 it originate? How it evolved over centuries? How do we understand the 
 articulation between Caste and Class in Indian Society? These are some 
 questions that do not merely have academic value, but essential for a 
 revolutionary anti-caste movement in India. As Marx said, "to be a radical 
 means, going to the root of things." It is imperative to approach this 
 question historically in order to articulate a proletarian strategy and 
 tactics on this question.\nSpeaker: Abhinav Sinha (Editor, 'Mazdoor Bigul', 
 Writer 'Red Polemique' Blog and Political Activist, Delhi, 
 India)\nModerator: Raj Sahai\n\nLOG-IN INFORMATION AT ICSSMARX.ORG\n\nAbout 
 the Institute\nThe Institute for the Critical Study of Society at the 
 Niebyl Proctor Marxist Library (ICSSMARX) was formed to further the 
 Library's goals of preserving our written heritage, as well as supporting 
 emerging struggles for racial and gender equality, and for Socialism. The 
 members of ICSS are active in different aspects of peopleճ struggles in 
 the Bay Area and globally. Some are affiliated with specific political 
 parties and tendencies, others are not. We respect one another, but we do 
 not necessarily agree on all issues. Accordingly, the opinions expressed in 
 our lectures, workshops, and publications are those of the authors only and 
 do not represent a group consensus on the issues discussed. We are united, 
 however, in our respect for the work of Karl Marx and our belief that his 
 work will remain as important for the class struggles of the future as they 
 have been for the past. As a group, we continue to draw inspiration from 
 the work of Karl Marx, including his Eleventh Thesis on Feuerbach:\nThe 
 philosophers have only interpreted the world,\nin various ways; the point 
 is to change it.\n\n\n
