I AM NOT YOUR DALIT is not just a collection of poem but it's a very own reflection, understanding and true epistmic reality of a woman with caste who rejected the socital assumption's, narrow expections and perception about Dalits. It's an authentic source of knowledge production where I'm, a woman from depressed mass who have lived experiences of caste and patriarchy challenging Brahminism and Brahminical patriarchy. I'm fighting castism on my own front on my level because I'm not accepting dominant voices and their ugly imaginations about Dalits. Hence, I've owned my identity by stating "I AM NOT YOUR DALIT".
The foundation and vision to compose these verses is nothing but to embrace love and to create just and equal world for each human being.
