Harper Podcast Episode 3: Radhika Iyengar in conversation with Amrita Tripathi

  • Summary

  • On this episode of Harper Podcast, we speak to the award-winning author Radhika Iyengar on her book ‘Fire on the Ganges: Life Among the Dead in Banaras’ which explores the lives of the Dom community. The Doms are a marginalised Dalit community of corpse-burners that are unfortunately still discriminated against, despite performing one of the critical tasks, including at risk to themselves. In this moving conversation we hear about the lives of resilient children, growing up in the community and breaking out of imposed roles and identities.
