Annihilation of Caste by B.R. Ambedkar
2.0
I'd mark it as spoilers but honestly, the title gives it away. It's exactly what you expect, for the most part. I won't go into the annihilation of Hinduism, those are points I can understand, from his perspective.
What no one, however, EVER told me was that Ambedkar was a eugenicist that considered racial purity something valid, and that tribal people were subhuman. He CRITICISED caste because it DID NOT ensure caste poverty. He also lambasted Hindus for NOT """CIVILISING"""" the tribals. I mean.
It was an insightful read, not because of his perspective, but because it shattered the positive image of him I had in my mind. :(
