Product Description

Uncovering the enduring grip and violence of the Hindu caste system, Manoj Mitta's "Caste Pride" presents a radical history based on previously unseen legislative and judicial records. From restrictive laws to social movements, Mitta delves into the characters, speeches, and decisions that have shaped the war on caste and reveals the discrimination and restrictions faced by Hindus of all castes. This insightful analysis also highlights the contributions of influential figures, both within and outside the caste system, who have fought against its oppressive nature. Through historic accounts, Mitta establishes that untouchability is only one facet of the caste hierarchy that continues to oppress communities across India. A masterful and transformative work, "Caste Pride" brings to light the complexities and struggles surrounding this ancient institution.
