Dalits in 21st Century: Ambedkarite Perspective

This book seeks to present the Ambedkarite perspective of Dalits in the 21st century. Explaining how untouchabilty started in India as religious persecution of the Buddhists, it describes the contradictions developed among different Dalit sub-castes, the atrocities against them, the creation of Adivasis, the nature of Dalit-Muslim unity, and the vanity of other backward classes—the Bahujans—who were degraded by Manu.

Further investigating into why Christians failed in India, it discusses at length the techniques of the Brahminical social order to rule over the masses, the global problem of caste system, the problem of racism, the issue of reservation, the Dalit assertion in Punjab, and the place of Dalits in Buddhism. The role of E.V. Ramasami Periyar in the upliftment of Dalits has also been discussed.
