Dalit : the black untouchables of India by V. T. Rajeshekar, Yussuf Naim Kly, V.T Rajshekar Shetty is a book available to read on EtoBox.

What is Dalit : the black untouchables of India about?

"After centuries of slavery, apartheid and ethnocide, the silence is broken. One hundred million Dalits in India, the twentieth century's largest, most oppressed minority, cry out for the ear of the world." "Who are the Dalits? What does it mean to be treated as an "untouchable?" Who were their Aryan conquerors, the creators of the caste system still in operation in India today? Is there a relation between Brahminism, the modern Nazi doctrine of Aryan supremacy, and the colonial, US and South African doctrines of "white nationalism" and white superiority? Why do many consider Mahatma Gandhi, who labelled them "the harijan" (the children of God), their enemy?" "Does the Black Untouchable's message have special meaning for Black Americans?" "Originally published in India under the title Apartheid in India, this book represents a guide to the thought of one of India's foremost human rights activists, combining the essentials of Marxism and the philosophy of the late Dr. B.R. Ambedkar into a new indigenous political philosophy to clarify the caste-class struggle in India."--Jacket
