Justice, Recognition, and Institutions: A Dialogue with Axel Honneth link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Dr Ambedkar compares the Mahad Conference compared with the French Revolution held in 1789. Mahad Satyagraha (Resisting Injustice) not for water but to establish human rights. Recently we witnessed a champion of post enlightenment thinker passed away Habermas.

“We are not going to the Chavadar Tank to merely drink its water. We are going to the Tank to assert that we too are human beings like others. It must be clear that this meeting has been called to set up the norm of equality” -Dr. B.R. Ambedkar #99MahadSatyagraha

Axel Honneth's on Habermas.

One of the tallest son of India. 🔥🔥🔥

Odisha may have put an end to manual scavenging but when it comes to drains, it continues to deploy sanitation workers for the same job without protection, social security & human dignity, while perpetuating an abhorrent legacy of the past which is strictly caste-based. My story.

Please read my article on "Politics of Reservation in the Absence of Social Justice Discourse in Odisha." "Historically, neither the Biju Janata Dal nor the BJP have adopted the Mandal Commission recommendations." @thewire_in thewire.in/caste/reservat…
