"Dalit Ecologies explores the ecological experiences, histories, and perspectives integrated within Dalit writing, art, and culture. Aligning with theories of environment justice and ecological struggles experienced by black populations, the book delves into six major themes: caste, earth, and earthly environment; labour and mobility; casteization of technology and industry; climate justice; Dalitbahujan Anthropocene; and eco-literary tradition. The essays in the book include the relationship between caste and environment, Dalit autobiographies, folktales and novels, city, waste and discard, caste-based industry and occupation, technological injustice, weather, caste and climate change, and black-Dalit ecologies. Expanding the boundaries of environmental studies, the book brings attention to individuals such as Adwaita Mallabarman, Bama, Nek Chand, and Deena-Bhadri on the one hand and specific places and arenas like the rock garden, tannery, brick kiln, steel industry, and sanitation on the other, which are often overlooked in mainstream environmental writings"--
