Add to basketHow does one deal with the paradox of bonded labour in a free country?
Why do farm workers who feed the richest country in the world go to sleep hungry?
What can we do to bring hope and justice in the lives of the poor and oppressed?
These are the hard-hitting questions that Vivek Pandit raised and sought answers to and which form the basis of The Fury of Hunger.Â
This book weaves together the author's life experiences of organising Adivasis and Dalits for liberation from their lives of bondage and oppression in India, with his first-hand observations of the civil rights movement and the movement of farm workers in America. The stories lay bare the inner struggles of the activist faced with the sorrows of the oppressed. They capture not just the long and hard struggle against bondage, hunger and hopelessness but also the dazzling moments of victory and freedom. Pandit communicates a range of emotions from helplessness and hopelessness to humour and righteous anger.
Without being pedantic, they touch upon the universal themes of the human urge for dignity and justice and the collective pursuit of a world free of hunger and fear.
