I just learned about this Indians/Dravidians and the stuff about them really being NIGGERS a few years ago. So why give them this exotic title of "Dravidians" if they are just Negroids?? Can anyone explain this to me???
I still can't believe it, Indians are nothing but a bunch of Niggers. Now I understand why something seemed odd about them because I would look at them and see this really broad nose like a NIGG, now I know why..

Dravidians are not exactly groids, as you can see by comparing them. Like chimpanzees and gorillas are both apes, both they're not the same.
India does have a large population of real negroids, left behind from when their ancestors where imported as slaves. David Duke had the right vision in "My Indian Odyssee" of India now as the possible USA of the future.

the lowest caste are chandalas which means untouchables.
dravidian refers to the conquered indigenous dark skinned inhabitants as you surmised. they arent indigenous of africa and that is what is usually meant by negroid. just like bushmen of australia look like groids but they are geographically and genetically distinct.

There are no "Indian/Dravidians" . Indians are a mixture of Aryans & Dravidians. Contemporary Dravidians are Ceylonians (Sri Lankans) of today. Indian dravidian might merely be a racially conscious south indian.
If you look at "Sri Lankans" and afrikans you'll see the difference in their appearances, they are different.

Right, good post. You do have a few tribals with Congoid influences, but Dravidians are quite distinct from Congtoids. Dravids often have very Caucasoid facial features but their skin is brown to black
The other main difference they have from Aryans is epidermal thickness, one trait they do share with the Congoids, and often hair that is thicker than Aryans, though the texture is otherwise the same.
Rather oddly, there are a few pockets of Congoids in this area such as the Andaman Islanders

i had always thought the term Dravadian referreed to a linguistic catagory as well. Those in the southern tip of India speak dravadian languages such as Tamil, and those in the Northern part speak Indo-European languages like Hindi.
Of corse, there's a racial aspect to it as well.

You are entirely correct. These are linguistic as well as racia lclassifications.
