About the Book: Caste, by Suraj Yengde, explores caste-based discrimination as a global issue, not just an Indian one.Through historical, ethnographic, and archival research, Yengde traces the Dalit experience from colonial-era indentured labor to today’s migrant workers.He examines the impact of colonialism, religion, and nationalism on caste hierarchies, and questions the diaspora’s silence on anti-caste struggles. The book also investigates the complexities of Dalit–Black solidarity and the global links between caste and race justice movements. It is a bold call for a cosmopolitan Dalit universalism in the global fight for equality and social justice.
