1 Little, 2 Little, 3 Little Indians Photo: In this day and age, I'm not sure the title of this post is politically correct but frankly, I've got nothing else. At times, I exhaust far too much time and energy trying to think of a clever title to label these posts. Thesauruses & almanacs are laboriously consulted but in this case, a children's song was all I could conjure up. With this title, I was trying to imply that these three people of differing ethnic backgrounds are all Indian, highlighting the extreme diversity of India's population. The Darjeeling (Sikkim also) area as well as North India (Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir) serve as these unique crossroads of human ethnicities. Ethnic groups in these areas seem to melt and morph into each other.
