"Uplifted by song, Sneha, an Untouchable eighth grader, leads classmates in a hand-clapping rehearsal of a patriotic anthem to be performed at a concert celebrating India's Republic Day. Kasturba Balika School in New Delhi provides education to some 700 under-privileged girls, most of them Untouchables. It is named for the wife of Mahatma Gandhi, the man who fought—and failed—to end the practice of Untouchability."
