The Dalits: Caste, Gender and Violence in India [2020]

In September 2020, 4 upper caste Thakur men allegedly brutally gang-raped and attacked a 19-year-old Dalit woman in India’s most populous state, Uttar Pradesh. She died because of it and the police hurriedly cremated her without the consent of the family. This tragedy led to India actually being forced to deal with its caste problem. In this documentary, we look at the intersection of caste, gender, and violence specifically against Dalit women in India.

**Corrections**

@2:15 - The word 'dalit' in Devanagari script is incorrectly spelled. It should be spelled 'दलित'.
@12:26 - The subtitle should read, "How can one boy drag her and take her away?"@13:28 - The subtitle should read "You all can scream, "hang them, hang them!"
@22:24 - "Nothing's"
@15:15 - This one is 'Rajput'
@15:34 - "These girls are part of the caste quota."
