Annihilation of Caste by B.R. Ambedkar

4.0

I read this after reading The Doctor and the Saint by Arundhati Roy, and I’m glad I read that first, as it provides a lot of context for both Ambedkar and Ghandi. Annihilation of Caste is dense and I definitely had to pause and look things up but it is worthwhile and I felt a lot of parallels to today. I also thought the back-and-forth between Ghandi and Ambedkar after the publication of the speech is fascinating and enlightening.
