Focusing on marginalized Dalit women in Maharashtra, this social and cultural history critiques the prevailing narrative of modern secular education by examining the complex social, economic, and political factors that shaped their opportunities. Shailaja Paik highlights the unique experiences, aspirations, and challenges faced by these women, positioning them as active historical agents. By addressing significant gaps in the historiography of India and the women's movement, the book enriches the understanding of Dalit women's roles in society and their pursuit of education.
