Ambedkar's India
- Dr. B. R. Ambedkar
Ambedkar's India is a collection of three of B.R. Ambedkar's most prominent speeches on caste and the Indian Constitution.
'The Grammar Of Anarchy' reflects how diverse this country is, what Dr. Ambedkar wanted for the people of this country, how far sighted he was and tells us how difficult it was to implement the constitution. Well, we clearly see how it's being tampered with these days;

So I think I understand what he meant.
'Annihilation Of Caste', B.R. Ambedkar's most famous speech which brings out how caste system in India works and how deep rooted it is in our culture. He even goes on to criticize Hinduism and takes a dig at the religious texts which he feels are male centric suppress the voices of the female counterparts.
'Castes In India: Their Mechanism, Genesis And Development' which I felt is an eye opener. Here, he shares his research about how caste is nothing but a product of endogamy and points out how and why it's problematic.
B.R. Ambedkar was Independent India's first Minister of Law and Justice and is more popularly remembered as the chief architect of the Constitution of India. He was a scholar with doctorates from Columbia University and London School of Economics. A well-known economist, jurist, politician and social reformer.
