Description: This autobiography/biography of R.B.More, a Dalit communist, bridges the divide between caste and class in Mumbai's historiography-a divide that is a product as much of history as of scholarship. It brilliantly brings into view the connections between, and the impediments to, the twin struggles for class emancipation and Dalit liberation. With a superb introduction by Anupama Rao that sets More's life and struggles in the historical context of the city, the text provides a rich picture of the social, cultural, and political meanings of what it meant to be a Dalit and a communist. This is an indispensable contribution to the literature on Mumbai's history.
