Pictures on the Way!


















So we arrived in Gujarat and immersed ourselves in the daily activities of DSK, the center for Dalit Empowerment, which functions as a vocational training center, but especially as a center for seeding the Dalit Movement and building Dalit identity among youth between 13 and 35 years old. DSK is in a village about 50 kilometers from Ahmedabad, the capital of Gujarat. The village has 600 inhabitants and does it best to accommodate the needs of the students coming to DSK. Still, we are pretty much unplugged from the rest of the world, which is good for our learning and understanding, but not ideal to share such experiences with you. We will do our best to post text from Gujarat, but the pictures will have to travel with us. Please, visit our blog, read our texts, and imagine the rich environment which we are enjoying! We cannot wait to tell you more about it!
