How many folks here know about the word 'pariah'?

Do you use it in regular conversations or writings, or come across it in new articles/quotes etc and don't flinch at all?

Can you consider if you would have the same reaction if the 'pariah' word was replaced with the dreaded N-word?

I think this could be an educational issue.

This too is a slavery issue, instead of a group of people we know suffering through centuries of mistreatment and worse, these people in India have suffered for millenia...
