Peter Riley"The idea of caste as being the foundational principle of so many of the -isms that we experience in our lives — whether it's racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism or whatever — the bedrock of all of that is this very fundamental idea that I'm better than you because of this set of random traits and that I will organise society and I will accrue power and status based on that," says DuVernay

Piakan#Origin is a bold and ambitious film, based on Isabel Wilkerson's groundbreaking book "Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents". I loved this film. #moviereview #castesystems #movies #contentwriter #anthropologist #avaDuVernay #originfilm

One of the people I had given away a couple of ORIGIN movie tickets to very kindly got in touch with me to say that they loved ORIGIN. And that they will see the film again.
Which was music to my eyes.
