Of 200 million Dalits nearly 50 per cent are women, often referred to as thrice Dalit, as they suffer from the triple oppressions of poverty, being female and being female Dalits. This book ends in suggesting forms of action from Church, society and feminist theology to show solidarity with and effect social change for Dalit women.
