Resistance is bi-dimensional, carried out both through reading and writing of texts and may be applied to a gamut of discourses such as: colonial discourse, imperial culture, gender issues, caste and class differences, imbalances due to cultural clashes and so on. Resistance has existed as long as human history and culture that it attempts to counter and will continue to exist as long as civilisation does.

  • Transforming Humiliation Into Activism: Stories of Dalit Women Heroes
    [ VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 4 I OCT.– DEC. 2018] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Transforming Humiliation into Activism: Stories of Dalit Women Heroes Deepti Senior Research Fellow (UGC), Dept of Political Science, Panjab University, Chandigarh. Received: July 25, 2018 Accepted: October 08, 2018 ABSTRACT According to Dr. Ambedkar, “I measure the progress of a community by the degree of progress women have achieved.” Men oriented societies have always considered women lower. They were treated as second to men in developing countries like India. Although women achieved many milestones in India however their condition is not much improved. In the case of Dalit women, they face deprivation and humiliation as a woman and as a Dalit. They are victimised on the basis of caste and gender even by their own family. There are some courageous stories of Dalit women who have struggled against the flow of the wind. They have tried hard to achieve their current status which made the society to revise their thought process. Many Dalit women leaders or heroes are working in these manners. The most prominent names are Krantijyoti Savitri Bai Phule, Rama Bai Ambedkar, Baby Kamble, Urmila Pawar, Meria Kumar and Mayawati. They have worked in different fields and have become motivational spirit for others. This paper reveals the true stories of their courage to get rid of humiliation through positive activism and create assertion in marginalised people. Nowadays, their lives are a ray of hope not only for Dalit women but for all the women in the world. Keywords: Dalit Women, Humiliation, Activism, Motivational Spirit, Marginalised people Introduction: Two words ‘Humiliation’ and ‘Activism’ are powerful words which although opposite to each other but can change someone’s life.
