Dalit: The Black Untouchables of India

By V.T. Rajshekar

Book Overview

After centuries of slavery, apartheid and ethnocide, the silence is broken. One hundred million Dalits in India, the twentieth century's largest, most repressed minority, cry out for the ear of the world. Who are the Dalits" What does it mean to be labeled as an "untouchable"? Is there a relationship between Brahmanism and India's caste system, the modern Nazi doctrine of Aryan supremacy, and the colonial, US and South African policies promoting white supremacy. Does this book have special meaning for Black America?
