๐Ÿ“… 17 Juli 1985 ๐Ÿ“ India

Dominant-caste attackers killed six Dalit men in Karamchedu, Andhra Pradesh, amid a conflict rooted in caste power and control of everyday resources. The violence and the struggle for accountability helped galvanize Dalit organizing, including the Dalit Mahasabha. Within Chapter 6's comparative approach, caste is treated as a distinct hierarchy whose material and cultural enforcement can illuminate struggles against inherited superiority.
