Web Link Ancient Slavery in Modern India

India has more slaves than any other country in the world. Millions of people are trapped as bonded labourers. Poverty forces them to borrow money from rich landlords. They become the landlord's lsaves until they can pay off the debt. But this is almost imposssible to do. Landlords use threats, coercion and violence to keep bonded labourers trapped in slavery for generations.

Web Link Brutal Caste Killings in India

Caste Massacres (1999): In the eastern Indian province of Bihar, hundreds of villagers have been butchered as an army of lower caste Dalits unleash their fury on their feudal rulers and as the upper castes retaliate.

For downloads and more information visit http://journeyman.tv/9138/short-films...

In the village of Narayanpur the brutalized bodies of men, women and children lie slumped where they were slain. They were victims of the Ranvir Sena, a private upper caste army. For the Sena this is a fight to preserve the centuries old way of life they believe is their birthright. "We kill whomever we see," Sena's young fighters tell us. The local landlord is unflinching in his support. "When we kill the men, their wives and children lead more miserable lives, so it is better to relieve them of their miseries too." In this state where caste hatred infects everything, Dalit election successes may deliver more spilt blood rather than progress.

Web Link Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar: The Untold Truth' [HD] Full Movie in English

This film holds its significance due to the fact that, though the ethos contained is Indian, it has its equation in the political and social disparity all over the world. The basic aim of the social revolution is to uphold the meaning of humanity in its truest sense.
Born in an 'untouchable' family at a time when untouchables were forbidden education, Ambedkar bore many insults and humiliations at the hands of his fellow students and became the first graduate of his community. Later, while studying at Columbia University, New York, Ambedkar was able to rid himself of the stigma of untouchability and breathe the air of freedom. But at the same time living next to Harlem he could equate the fate of his people with that of the Afro-Americans.
Though this story is particular to India, it is also universal. While Dr Ambedkar was rooted in India, he also had an international outlook. There will always be people like him who struggle to better the lot of the exploited, the downtrodden, and the forgotten. His was the universal fight of the underdog, to gain his people a rightful place in the sun.
The film evolved from the documentary film he made on the life of Dr Ambedkar for Films Division in 1989. Shooting for this documentary was also done part in the US and the UK and mainly in India when Patel met people who were in actual contact with Dr Ambedkar. "The incidents related to me by these people, their fond memories of the learned visionary were so touching and exciting that I thought, the only true tribute to the great man would be a lifesize sketch of Dr Ambedkar on the silver screen."
According to director Jabbar Patel, it is important for every Indian to see the film because "we don't often read this chapter of our history. As we can see from events around us today, the social struggle of Dr. Ambedkar is important to know because it helps us better understand the present".

Web Link Dr B.R. Ambedkar speaks on M.K. Gandhi [BBC sound archives]

Speaker is a distinguished Scholar, Constitutionalist, Revolutionary and leader of the Depressed Classes. Human Rights champion of the 21st Century who played an important role at the Round Table Conferences held in London . He was opposed to Gandhi's policy relating to a separate electorate. Memories of the few times he had met Gandhi in 1929 and after the signing of the Poona Pact in jail. Feels as he saw Gandhi in the capacity of an opponent, he saw more of the real man than his devotees. Maintains he was "an episode" rather than "an epoch-maker". Believes he deceived the people and was two-faced (double dealing) over caste.

Web Link Arundhati Roy on Dr B R Ambedkar & Mahatma Gandhi - Pt 1 of 3

On 7th March, 2014, Arundhati Roy, S Anand and Prof Suryakant of TISS, released the book 'Annihilation of Caste' by Dr B R Ambedkar at St. Xaviers College, Mumbai. The book was originally written by Dr. Ambedkar as a speech but was never delivered because the Hindu reformist group that had invited Ambedkar, found it too controversial. This new version of the book contains a long essay 'The Doctor and the Saint' by Arundhati Roy and has detailed, and well researched annotation by S. Anand. 

Here Arundhati Roy speaks about Dr B R Ambedkar and Mahatma Gandhi.
