The author adapts to the term ‘difference,’ highlighting the lived experiential realities of Dalit women engaging in ‘different’ places and culture while rejecting any imposed and shameful identity with their experiential knowledge. Roja Singh presents the Dalit women-their experiences and resilience within the framework of transnational feminism, Earthy Humanness, and ‘difference’ in Spotted Goddesses. These spotted goddesses assert their identities as Dalit women with heterogeneous experiences that resist the violence and oppression inflicted upon them by the caste communities and Dalit men. The book Spotted Goddesses: Dalit Women’s Agency-Narratives on Caste and Gender Violence (2019) by Roja Singh is an ethnography that aims to present the Dalit women activists’ narratives as spotted goddesses from the Dalit community in the Pudukkottai district in Tamil Nadu.
