Caste Turbulence in Dalit Literature: Rise of Dalit Feminism

'Dalit feminism,' also known as women's discourse in literature,
is the class that stands for itself within itself, because of its socio
political and economic context, Dalit feminism has fallen
behind. This class, on the one hand, distinguishes itself from
feminism, while on the other, separates Dalit women's thinking
from Dalit thought, because they considered that within this
whole idea of feminism, they were labelled as second-class
citizens due to their so-called caste. And their problems have
come to the fore here in a secondary role. Freedom from Dalit
patriarchy was another motivation to support Dalit feminism.
Dalit leaders, or Dalit discourse leaders, were men who
provided central expression to this ideology.Even while women
in marginalised societies had the right to some level of decisionmaking and the ability to protest, they were harassed at home
because the patriarchal system existed not only among
Brahmins but also among Dalits.This study examines how Dalit
women are the most exploited, as well as how their experiences
are crucial in comprehending the triple oppression of women.
