About the Book
The stigma of “caste based discrimination” is attached as soon as one is born in a scheduled caste family. Dalit Voice: Literature and Revolt is by far the first book on dalit studies to cover dalit situation of different parts of India. It is a variegated caravan, a lighted discourse of resistance and emancipation. The book aims at a dalit standpoint; ‘a politics of difference’ or ‘discourse of discontent’ from the mainstream Indian criticism. The standpoint is a project not an inheritance; it is achieved. Dalit woman needs to break her silence. Some essays in the book give voice to her subjectivity and lived experiences
