Summary: One Burundi common proverb is that the Imanea( the Supreme Being) creates men, and draws no distinction between them. A Japanese adage ascribed to one Yukichi Fukuzawa says that Haven does not create men above men or below men. tantly spoken Punjabi utterance conveys the same A cons sense by saying that large or small a pebble is always a pebble, that is, high or low a man is always a man. There is no genetive and congenital distinction among men, they are all created by the same creator. A Mongo saying (spoken in Zaire) goes all humans are born of women and doomed to die. Desire, anger, fear, greed, sorrow, anxiety, hunger, fatigue-these over-power them similarly. What reason, indeed then is for assigning the highest status to one race, varna, caste or class and the lowest to any other? What logic then is for discrimination, distinction and difference of one section of mankind from another on grounds only of race, colour, caste, place of origin or birth, or any of them? What then is the rationale for apartheid policy of racial segregation in large parts of white minority ruled Africa, colour discrimination in the United States of America and untoucha bility in India?
