| Summary/Abstract |
A hindu reformed group in 1936 invited B.R. Ambedkar to deliver their presidential address and chart a path to end the cast esystem. When he argued that the immorality of caste was sustained by the Vedas and shastras, and without 'dynamiting' them there could be no reform, they withdrew their invitation.
Ambedkar published the text on his own. Mahatma Gandhi responded to the provocation. The hatchet was never buried. It has generated inevitable questions about political representation, caste, privilege and power in Indian society.

| Summary/Abstract |
In many countries around the world, universal access to education is a seemingly unattainable dream; however, determined individuals with vision and drive have made this dream come true for many. This book highlights people such as Okello, a former child soldier in Uganda, who founded a school for children like himself whose education was derailed by war; Julia Bolton Holloway who realized that the only effective way to educate Roma children was to teach literacy to their parents at the same time; Shannen Koostachin, a passionate 13-year-old whose fight for the right of First Nations children to have proper schools endured even after her untimely death. These uplifting stories of people who were undeterred in their fight to bring education to children will leave young readers with excellent models of how to mobilize support when fighting for social justice.

Who discovered the first detergent soap in India? Who created scripts as they crafted pots? Who selected and standardised most of the food items we eat today? How did cotton come to be spun into cloth? Who originated the science of making leather out of animal skin? In this book, Kancha Ilaiah throws light on the science, art and skill of adivasi, cattle-rearers, leatherworkers, potters, farmers, weavers, dhobis and barbers. The book documents the contributions to the betterment of human life by castes and communities despised as ‘lowly’ and ‘backward’. this book—with stunning illustrations by Durgabai vyam—is the first ever attempt to inculcate a sense of dignity of labour among India’s children.
