The Caste System.
Caste system describes societies that are stratified based on hereditary groups across the world. In its biological formation in South Asia, particularly India, it was established on a belief that all living things are characterized with specific qualities. The perception of all aspects of individual lifestyle in terms of social status, occupation as well as food defines the bottom line of the caste system. The system in South Asia was first encountered in the 16th century when Portuguese aliens experienced racism in social formation. The top-ranked occupational categories of people in India were known as varnas, and the Jatis were the hereditary occupational sets of people among the varnas. The attributes of social groups and rules discouraging intermarriages portrayed the existence of a racist culture. Hinduism comprised of outcasts who performed all sorts of miserable jobs prone to diseases and pollution. Contrary to the Hinduism were Brahmins were considered pure.

Despite the college degree, it is shown that Americans raised from poor backyards earned meagre wages (Axmann et al,170). African-Americans and low-income people had low intelligence quotient as a result of the caste system, thus associating American inequality to genetic variances.
