This collection of essays was published to commemorate the 125th Birthday of Babasaheb Ambedkar. Babasaheb is among the very few individuals in history who can claim to have inspired masses and generations of oppressed people to devote themselves to redefining who they are…The richness of the articles validates that when Babasaheb Ambedkar put his genius to the service of the oppressed, the oppressed reciprocated by disallowing his deliberate erasure by the state apparatuses. In the end, this book is about universal values, seen through Babasaheb’s wisdom and its resonance in ordinary people’s lives. The cultural grounding for this book has a fundamental provenance to the sub continental land mass, but this is not just about the caste society or an Asian experience. It is relevant to everyone.
