This Ancient Instrument Is Breaking Caste Barriers

#thebetterindia

Once called “inauspicious” & forced on Dalits at funerals, the ancient Parai drum is now echoing across the world with pride!

Thanks to changemakers like Manimaran, Srinivas & Chandrika, parai is reclaiming its power—breaking caste barriers, empowering women & youth, even performing with AR Rahman!

From funeral grounds to global stages, parai is no longer stigma—it’s culture, protest & pride.
