It's money and everything that comes along with it - social status, health (both because of access to healthcare, but being able to afford a healthy lifestyle), education, safer interactions with law enforcement, job prospects and advancement, etc. If you're born poor, it's very hard to break out of that. It's not literally impossible like changing caste is, but it's very difficult.

Moving abroad and changing your name may even be a little easier than breaking out of American capital chains. Youll still be dalit but it doesnt have to define you.

India also has a dalit president.

America hasnt had a president of modest income since Truman.
