These views are the views of a man, who has been no tool of power,
no flatterer of greatness. They come from one, almost the whole of
whose public exertion has been one continuous struggle for liberty
for the poor and for the oppressed and whose only reward has been
a continuous shower of calumny and abuse from national journals
and national leaders, for no other reason except that I refuse to
join with them in performing the miracle—I will not say trick—of
liberating the oppressed with the gold of the tyrant and raising the
poor with the cash of the rich.
—Dr. Ambedkar in
‘Annihilation of Caste’.
