[ZESTCaste] Importance of Guardian's editorial on Babasaheb

 


Please click on this link and like it and help Guardian notice how popular Babasaheb even among online communities. It helps the foreign press realise how much we appreciate international coverage on Dalit leaders and concerns.
It surely will help the campaigns by our oversees sisters and brothers in their efforts to replace that pseudo Mahatma by revolutionary Ambedkar. 
It will also help hasten the long-overdue recognition for Babasaheb to be a suitable icon for the struggles of the oppressed all over the world. Efforts by Dalits abroad helped invoking Babasaheb's name and message in the "Gypsy" struggles for dignity in Europe. 
This editorial strikingly places Ambdkar's life and message as a better example of uplift in the middle of a debate on class in the context of royal wedding. Guardian deserves accolades for this sensible gesture.
