On June 21, 2014, Washington, DC: the International Commission for Dalit Rights (ICDR) in collaboration with Dalit and Amebedakarite Organizations from USA, Canada, UK, Europe, India, Nepal, Pakistan and other South Asian Countries organized Global March in DC to increase awareness of the issues faced by millions of caste-affected individuals worldwide. ICDR Founder and President Dil Bishwakarma (who goes by DB Sagar) said “This march is about restoring the basic human rights that are denied to people every day at the hands of the caste system. The United Nations has done extensive work that documents the perils of caste discrimination and the United States can take the global lead in eradicating this gross injustice. In-front of the White House, Mr. DB Sagar made a special remark and urged the President Obama to speak up and stand for the elimination of Caste-based Discrimination and sexual violence. He urged Mr. President to endorse Draft UN Principles and Guidelines for the Effective Elimination of Discrimination based on Work and Descent established by the UN Human Rights Council (A/HRC/11/CRP.3); and also called the US Congress to pass a binding resolution against caste-based discrimination that mandates action by US government agencies in caste-affected countries.
