About this document

Dalit Heroism Against British Rule Is Well-Known, Yet The Neo-Dalits by Samar Singh is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses how Dalit folklore celebrates heroes who resisted British rule in India, contrary to claims that the British emancipated Dalits. It provides examples of Dalit heroes like Chetram Jatav and Balluram Mehtar who led uprisings, as well as warrior figures like Udadevi and Makka Pasi who fought against the British. Many of these resistance fighters have shrines built in their honor or remain symbolic of the struggle against oppression.
