REUTERS/ Ann Saphir/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 29 (Reuters) - Fresno, California, became only the second U.S. city to ban caste discrimination after a unanimous city council vote that added caste and indigeneity as two new protected categories into its municipal code. THE TAKEA movement against caste discrimination has picked up some momentum in recent months in North America. Earlier this year, Seattle became the first U.S. city to outlaw caste discrimination after a city council vote and Toronto's school board became the first in Canada to recognize that caste discrimination existed in the city's schools. If signed into law, it would make California the first U.S. state to ban caste discrimination. Activists opposing caste discrimination say it is no different from other forms of discrimination like racism and hence should be outlawed.
