The video in this article appears to contradict the rest of the article. I agree with the sentiment expressed in the video but the text outside the video is GARBAGE.
There's no difference between "Aryans" and the so called "Dravidians". Dravidians are not a race but simply people living in the southern part of the country- a country that was once known as Aryavrat. Dravidians are 100% Aryans. This was a stupid construct brought into existence by the Britishers and foolishly adopted by most Indians. There are short and dark skinned Indians in most parts of the country- Bengal, Bihar, Orrisa and several other parts of the country where people are exposed to the scorching sun- NOT JUST South India, which obviously is a lot warmer.
A lot of stupid North Indians may delude themselves into believing that they belong to some 'superior' race, although a vast majority of the wanna-be whites are brown-skinned- UP,Rajasthan,MadhyaPradesh etc...And a lot of stupid South Indians accept they belong to different race, because of this propaganda and sometimes out of resentment for obvious reasons. I rest my case.

The indus valley civilization existed before the arrival of the aryans. The word aryan comes from the iranians of middle asia. Later there has been mix of both races. Further the beliefs and practices of both groups were different. These are evident from the seals discovered. Importance of the bull among the indus valley group as against the horse in aryan group. pashupati nath seal and mother goddess as against nature worship of indra, varuna, etc.
agrarian group - indus valley people.
Cattle dependent - aryan group.

City dwellers and peace loving (not trained in warfare could be a cause for the decline of this civilization )- indus valley
nomadic and military skilled - aryan group

The mix of the groups is seen in the later periods and practices. and emergences of shivism and vaishnavism and then acceptance of both in present day smarthas.

Because, the Aryan migration was supposed to have taken place after the fall of the Indus VC. Moreover, recent findings in excavations of IVC proves the possible Dravidian cultural prevalence there, viz., the scripts, symbols, idols etc.,

Aryans were invaders from persia and russia

Aryans only came to India in about 1500BC whereas the Indus Valley civilization existed from about 8000 BC.
It is only logical that it is the Dravidians who were living in the Indus valley in India long before the Aryans arrived.
Moreover, Tamil has been proved to be the oldest living language in the world, older than Sanscrit, which is anyway, a dead language like Latin.
