| Summary, etc | Despite the abolition of slavery in 1865 and the termination of the caste system in 1950, hierarchies predicated on labour and superiority continue to endure. Women from African American and Dalit communities experience cumulative oppression stemming from their race/caste and gender. This conflict is vividly illustrated in the works of Toni Morrison and Meena Kandasamy. This article examines their select novels to analyse and contrast the distinct manifestations of patriarchy that oppress women in these two disparate, yet remarkably analogous, societies. The article draws parallels between the United States and India, illustrating how both nations possess oppressive systems that restrict the freedom and potential of women from marginalized backgrounds. Intersectionality theory underpins this analysis, elucidating the dual burdens of caste and gender for Dalit women, as well as race and gender for African American women. The article underscores the importance of an intersectional framework to fully comprehend the intricacies of the oppression faced by Dalit women in India and presents innovative strategies for their empowerment.- Reproduced https://www.sajospsglobal.com/current.html |
