Authors
R Sangavi, Dr. K Ravichandran
Abstract
Dalit feminist writings are developing faster. Watching their men
participate in struggle. And write about their oppression, the Dalit women have
also learnt to give voice to their troubles. This doc not detract from the
patriarchal oppression of the Dalit women. One of the important was literarv
genres is the autobiography through which the women in general and Dalit women
i particular cxpress themselves. Bama’s Sangati, for example deals with Dalit
women’s dual oppression, agony and anger. The Dalit women are downtrodden and
oppressed because of suppression by their own men and by the upper caste men
and women. Being illiterate, they have become one of the most cxploited
peripheral groups in the society. The proposed paper examines Bama’s Sangati in
terms of the aspirations and struggles of a Dalit woman towards s0cial
empowerment. The focus of the argument in the paper would be on how the Dalit
women use literature in general and autobiography in particular as a means of
expressing themselves and their aspirations for social liberation and
empowerment.
