A landmark case against a tech giant in the US has made news recently. Regulators in the state of California sued IT firm Cisco for allegedly discriminating against an Indian-American employee on the basis of his caste. The company has denied the allegations. Caste system, which is outlawed in India, is a social ranking practice, which determines the work you do, the religious practices you can follow and even the relationships you can have. Those at the bottom rung of the system are often referred to as ‘untouchables’. And with many Indians migrating to the US for better job opportunities, caste bias has become an uncomfortable reality there as well. In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we look at India’s unwanted export, and how Indians working in tech firms in the US feel discriminated against because of their caste.

À propos du livre : "Les bobos américains " paru aux éditions Balland Les français n'ont pas le monopole du Bobo, ni du Coco. Bobos Sans Frontières est une organisation à but lucratif qui a traversé l'Atlantique depuis longtemps. Ses membres américains sont honteux d'être américains et veulent désespérément ressembler aux français (du 6e arrondissement de Paris, ou de l'Ile de Ré.) Ils ont donc décidé d'entrer en résistance. Il n'y a pas de décalage horaire entre les bobos français et les U.S. bobos qui louent le système socialiste. Les résistants français se battaient contre les troupes allemandes au péril de leurs vies. Foin de ce détail pour les bobos américains qui jouissent, dans une démocratie certes imparfaite, du droit d'expression le plus libre au monde. Les élites gauchistes formées à Yale et Harvard, à force de blâmer les péquenots et de défendre des minorités radicalisées ont poussé la frange modérée des Etats-Unis à refuser de voter pour Hillary Clinton en 2016. L'élection de 2020 ne se présente pas beaucoup mieux pour les bobos, surtout avec une économie qui repart et des "affaires" qui se dégonflent.
First Broadcast October 30, 2005: In this week’s edition of Shire Network News, the official podcast of Silent Running, Laurence Simon seems rather out of sorts over a statement from the Iranian President about relations with Israel. Terribly touchy those Hebrews, I find. The smallest threat to exterminate them with atomic weapons and they take so personally.Our Man in … Continue reading "022 Podcast discovers possible Islamist training camp in Virginia from October 30 2005"
Laurence Simon explains staying put in hurricane-threatened Houston was preferable to being stuck in the worlds biggest traffic jam with three angry cats and no food.

In this week's edition of Shire Network News, the official podcast of Silent Running, Our Man in London brings us up to date on how the cops cornered and tasered one of the tube bombing suspects only hours after a particularly clueless Muslim cleric in Birmingham insisted there was no evidence Muslims were involved. Andrew says moderate Muslims are really starting to make their voices heard, and the local (Muslim) MP has called for the cleric to be sacked. As always we bring you the Full of Crap Report from Laurence Simon, and our feature interview this week is with Egyptian blogger Big Pharaoh, who along with his buddy Egyptian Sandmonkey responded to the Sharm El-Sheikh bombings by staging an anti-terrorist demonstration in Cairo. An anti-terrorist demonstration in Cairo! Okay, it was relatively small, and they were eventually moved on by the police, and bureaucracy appears to have stymied their efforts to hold an even bigger protest at Al Azhar Park, but the Pharaoh says there's a lot of changes coming in the Middle East, and if you listen to this podcast you'll hear about some of them. For gods sake don't miss his ringing personal endorsement of a certain leading Anglospheric political figure! Oh yeah, some guy called Kiwi Bob shows up and talks about some blog he writes for. It's called Silent Running or something. I've never heard of it, personally.
