Is Aryan migration historical fact? Yk even Ambedkar didn’t believe in racial theory of caste 😐

Yes it is, near verified by historical, linguistic, anthropological and a genetic record.

Neither do I, subscribing to Aryan migration does not mean race as caste in any way unless you you believe that migrations of any form result in racial violence and domination. It doesn't even follow that that such violence manifests as the caste system and maps to racial violence. There isn't even a need to believe in the coherence of Aryans as a racial group to accept that their were migrations of Indo European peoples bringing horses into the subcontinent. Ambedkar's reservations on the acceptance of Aryan Migration were founded in a time where the hypothesis was called Aryan Invasion, and deployed often as a defense of Aryan and Brahmin superiority over indigenous others. The Hindu right now refutes Aryan Migration because they want sole claim to Indian history.

Some excerpts I love reading again and again. A must to start your journey of being anti-caste. And the next goal is to get your family to read.

One thing I learnt from Dr B. r. Ambedkar is rejecting so called ideals that did no good to the world. And will use that ability till the day I can. 😇

The year was 1950, the young nation of India celebrated it's first Republic Day.

India’s first Republic Day began with C Rajagopalachari proclaiming India a Sovereign Democratic Republic at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.

Today, for the first time in our long and chequered history,”he said “We find the whole of this vast land brought together under the jurisdiction of one consititution of one union which takes over responsibility for the welfare of more than 320 million men and women who inhabit it.”

- Dr Rajendra Prasad taking the oath as India’s first President

The chief guest on occasion was Indonesian President Dr Sukarno. On Nehru’s request, Delhi University had organised a special convocation to confer an honorary PhD on Sukarno. One moment to be remembered from this ceremony was the riveting role reversal between two of Asia’s charismatic leaders. It was common practice for Nehru to conclude his speeches by shouting Jai Hind. Then, he would say “Louder!” and the crowd would satisfy his demand.

A cartoon from HT published on 24 January showing Chairman of the Drafting Committee (and later Law Minister) B R Ambedkar holding an infant Republic of India while Mother India lays in bed exhausted from labour. Around him stand Dr Rajendra Prasad and Nehru, looking anxiously.

A 31-gun salute welcomed Dr Prasad to the first ever Republic Day celebrations. Dr Prasad proceeded to take a round of the amphitheatre, this time in a jeep, while saluting the 3,000 armed forces that had gathered there, after which he hoisted the tricolour, our national flag for the very first time. Another memorable speech by him was in the offing.

Nearby, in Connaught Place, people of all age groups thronged the streets and crowded restaurants; shops remained illuminated through the day while the Rashtrapati Bhavan lit up at night, marking yet another first of a custom followed till this day. The atmosphere was electric and the spirit of freedom, infectious. India was the first Commonwealth country to have entirely come into its own; it was the biggest national ceremony of the 20th century.

P. S. Guys I really don't know if this goes with algorithm of Tumblr but as an Indian I believe, completing 74 years of republic & democratic dominion is a great milestone and as a proud indian and true patriot, I loved making this post.

So,

HAPPY 74th REPUBLIC DAY 🇮🇳

७४ गणतंत्र दिवस की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं 🇮🇳

📕What book has had the biggest impact on your life, and why? 

non-fiction: dr b. r. ambedkar's the annihilation of caste. its more of an essay than a book but i'm putting it in anyways because reading at 11/12yo really changed a lot of the way i saw the world

fiction: it's... probably the asoiaf books. everything i love about themes and characterisation and tropes can be traced back to them (side-effect of reading them in grade five)
