As a Mahar from Telangana, I can say that we have no problem eating beef.

I believe that diverse communities and demography have a big influence on lifestyle, food, and culture

castism is still prevalent in many parts of our country. This is really shameful. It has been more than 75 years of independence, People still face such problems of DISCRIMINATION AND UNTOUCHABILITY.
As a non-Indian other than the st***d caste system I also find it ridiculous that even among the culturally and linguistically identical/similar people in India, parts of the group are discriminated against just because their religions differ, especially the treatment of non-Hindus from Hindu (ultranationalists)

Congratulations to Mr. Shahu Patole for his anthropological and sociological contributions and bringing it to the fore a vast the culinary habits of our silent majority.
As an "upper caste" Hindu, I am a bit embarrased to say I never thought about this. That there would be a different cuisine for Dalits due to discrimination. Of course, it would differ from one region to another throughout the subcontinent. But even so. I've seen videos of foods from all over the world, but never knew about this. EDIT: There seems to be a misunderstanding among some in the comments. I used the double quotes around the words some of you find objectionable precisely because they are so. I don't believe in caste. The caste system is the root cause of India's suffering for about 2000 years, if not more. Dr. Ambedkar's Annihilation Of Caste is a work worth reading and understanding. Jai Bhim!
Don’t you feel ashamed calling yourself an upper caste Hindu, you are the same human as anyone else walking this planet and it’s only in your mind that you may feel as being a cut above the rest and it’s nowhere else.
Dalit cuisine varries from different state in m.p we traditionally have long history of eating beef . Also beefcurry and sarso chutney . Bajra was main staple food. Dalit cuisine is very different from Hindus . You are correct 💯
@@KARTv1-6As an upper caste, I assume, if dalits were not allowed to mix and intermingle with normal people, they will eat whatever they could find na, and cows are everywhere! So i think Dalit people evolved the custom of eating beef. I see no problem, but i think they should try to avoid it.
I guess casteism and reservation are going hand in hand ….. you can’t remove caste system because it’s deeply rooted and no one wants to let go the free upper class status without doing anything great ….and can’t remove reservation because same caste people will give jobs to their own people …discrimination will start again …Yup it’s a messed up situation!

It's eye opening that divide that is so vast - you , me or anyone who even tries consciously to put aside the differences : - Food we eat still has imprints of 'Caste' - Culture has to be questioned in the name of humanity
I am Christian from Kerala, and we are not dalit. But some vegetables you showed are eaten by most of the people irrespective of religion. Sir, by God's grace, you are doing well. Do what you can do for the upliftment of the society. President K. R. Narayan was from a lower caste. But he got a good education in Kerala. God had created everyone equal. Who knows who will be in heaven. There was a royal family in Kerala from Dalits . You can Google and find out. I am a member of Syrian Christians of Kerala. But in my home no separate plate, food , water tea etc for those who work in our home My grandfather always made sure the workers in the field ate same food as he ate . Special occasions he used to keep food for them before serving others After he passed away, my mom used to eat with them on special occasions
Thank you! For being an honest person! I too noticed that the vegetables shown were local vegetables eaten by all despite the caste! Also nice to see a Syriac Christian! I hope you are well. I’m a Hindu and I know about the persecution that your people have faced historically in your homeland. God bless you!
Even The Supreme Court is highly casteist. They have proven it many times. Be it decriminalizing crime against SC ST or trying to end reservation etc. but they allowed EWS reservation in a blink. 90 % of the Judges are from a certain caste and they don't allow anyone to become judge from suppressed class. Share this message to all SC ST and OBC people. At least they should be aware of this.
I am SC and i live in Tripura,let me tell you what happened with me,when i was 9 years old there was a baisnav seva in our Village which was organised by our family,i touched the baisnav when i was playing while she was eating,she got up and went out took cow dung and mixed with water and sprinkled on her,no one said nothing and was bashing on me,we are not allowed to go near the Durga puja bhog or touch the pandit directly while he was doing puja,when we moved to the city ,the house owner wont drink even water from our house,thats the condition we are living in i am very eager to leave the country and settle abroad,i have lost belief in both my religion and my country.
We are not hindus , we are what we are call us by our caste name , dont call us hindus . It is shameful for us . The religion is a political construct , our uneducated people accepted that name . But hindu is not a religion , it just a common name given to everyone who is not muslim and christians . No one has authority to convert someone to hinduism . Brahmin scriptures hijacked hindu identity also and again divided people under varna system . This is systematic oppression .apni jaati ki hak ke liye lado , dharm ke liye nahi . Kyun ki yo dharm he hi nahi .
Lol you can't recover until you know what is robbed from you. Your Vedic treasure was looted by these intellectual so called upper caste goons and you say hindu is anyone besides muslim Christian. If you fight for caste you mean you accept hinduism, you accept you are choti caste you are inferior. I say shed everything. There is no caste. Just a group of beings who are done with further oppression. If there is no hindu, there should also be no caste

Right!! Also the person mentioned some plants that actually all people eat in Maharashtra regardless of caste! Shepu is literally Dill, Tandulcha is also a frequently used vegetable!
Thank you for showcasing the Dalits! The caste, in my opinion, has brought generations of trauma and poverty to innocent people who are penalised for simply being born into a segment of a caste over which they have no control. Moreover, the interviewee knew that the caste system is tied to religion which makes it harder to remove the caste system. I would love to go to India one day and visit the Dalit community, to dine and celebrate festivities with them.

@@DhirajKyawalmost of the vegetables mentioned here are eaten by all castes not just dalits and majority of this stuff is due to poverty endued by British rule.

As a Mahar from Telangana, I can say that we have no problem eating beef. Nonetheless, there are severe limitations on the consumption of beef in Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, and Maharashtra. I believe that diverse communities and demography have a big influence on lifestyle, food, and culture
Food habits has nothing to do with religion. In Bengal, the custom of animal sacrifice was widely practised and eaten .

My respect for this gentleman ! I am purchasing it out now ! I have purchased it now, arrived on 5 Aug, edited !
As an "upper caste" Hindu, I am a bit embarrased to say I never thought about this. That there would be a different cuisine for Dalits due to discrimination. Of course, it would differ from one region to another throughout the subcontinent. But even so.
I've seen videos of foods from all over the world, but never knew about this.
EDIT: There seems to be a misunderstanding among some in the comments. I used the double quotes around the words some of you find objectionable precisely because they are so. I don't believe in caste. The caste system is the root cause of India's suffering for about 2000 years, if not more. Dr. Ambedkar's Annihilation Of Caste is a work worth reading and understanding.
Jai Bhim!
Don’t you feel ashamed calling yourself an upper caste Hindu, you are the same human as anyone else walking this planet and it’s only in your mind that you may feel as being a cut above the rest and it’s nowhere else.
Dalit cuisine varries from different state in m.p we traditionally have long history of eating beef . Also beefcurry and sarso chutney .
Bajra was main staple food.
Dalit cuisine is very different from Hindus . You are correct 💯

@@KARTv1-6As an upper caste, I assume, if dalits were not allowed to mix and intermingle with normal people, they will eat whatever they could find na, and cows are everywhere! So i think Dalit people evolved the custom of eating beef. I see no problem, but i think they should try to avoid it.

I guess casteism and reservation are going hand in hand ….. you can’t remove caste system because it’s deeply rooted and no one wants to let go the free upper class status without doing anything great ….and can’t remove reservation because same caste people will give jobs to their own people …discrimination will start again …Yup it’s a messed up situation!

I am Christian from Kerala, and we are not dalit. But some vegetables you showed are eaten by most of the people irrespective of religion. Sir, by God's grace, you are doing well. Do what you can do for the upliftment of the society. President K. R. Narayan was from a lower caste. But he got a good education in Kerala. God had created everyone equal. Who knows who will be in heaven. There was a royal family in Kerala from Dalits . You can Google and find out. I am a member of Syrian Christians of Kerala. But in my home no separate plate, food , water tea etc for those who work in our home
My grandfather always made sure the workers in the field ate same food as he ate . Special occasions he used to keep food for them before serving others After he passed away, my mom used to eat with them on special occasions
Thank you! For being an honest person!
I too noticed that the vegetables shown were local vegetables eaten by all despite the caste!
Also nice to see a Syriac Christian! I hope you are well. I’m a Hindu and I know about the persecution that your people have faced historically in your homeland.
God bless you!
Thank you for this book, Sir. Have heard good things about it and I simply can’t wait to explore it.
Even The Supreme Court is highly casteist. They have proven it many times. Be it decriminalizing crime against SC ST or trying to end reservation etc. but they allowed EWS reservation in a blink. 90 % of the Judges are from a certain caste and they don't allow anyone to become judge from suppressed class. Share this message to all SC ST and OBC people. At least they should be aware of this.

Thank you for showcasing the Dalits! The caste, in my opinion, has brought generations of trauma and poverty to innocent people who are penalised for simply being born into a segment of a caste over which they have no control. Moreover, the interviewee knew that the caste system is tied to religion which makes it harder to remove the caste system. I would love to go to India one day and visit the Dalit community, to dine and celebrate festivities with them.

Reservation is still a necessity in the Indian society. Talking from a pragmatic point of view. We are already the most populous country on Earth and still growing, yet adamantly holding the place in "low-income countries" for a hot minute now. And this is unlikely to change in the distant future too. Hence we need as many prosperous, efficient, educated people as possible.
