Ayyankali: A Dalit Leader Of Organic Protest by Meena Kandasamy, M. Nisar
informative
tense
4.5
i honestly thought that this was a biography of ayyankali with a special focus on his mobilisation and resistance efforts, but only the the third and final chapter actually talked about him ! however, to credit the authors they do mention this in the introduction so that is fine + the first two chapters detail the sociopolitical environment which gave rise to dalit resistance movements, which is very important in order to understand the nature of caste brutality within the specific context.
