DV’s International Appeal

The same torch carried by Dr. Ambedkar and others is now in the hands of V.T. Rajshekar. The international appeal of his work as well as the things he has had to endure attest to this fact. We find his literature to be insightful, unique, and appealing to a broad spectrum of audiences. The arguments are cogent, the topics are relevant and pointedly stated. We know of no other body of work which compares with it. Thus, it stands in a class of its own. The ideas are seminal and scholarly, yet written in a manner which makes them accessible to the common reader. The works of V.T. Rajshekar are indispensable to anyone wishing to have a clear understanding of caste and casteism in India. I would like to see his ideas produced in audio/video format with such things as interviews, lectures, documentaries, etc. Video is a powerful medium and is looked upon by the upcoming generation as the newest form of literature. In a video format, posted on Google Video, his ideas would be given instant and unlimited circulation. The same legal rights can be reserved as in written material and the production costs are minimal.
