About 15 months ago -has it only been that long? – i was in Marathwada making a documentary on Self Help Groups set up by destitute women that form the basis of bare foot capitalism. Starting with nothing these women have built up amazing capital – in the form of goats.The women combat the triple whammy of gender, caste and poverty. Yet, their strength is quite something else. Their perserverence and dedication to change their lot without bitterness is admirable.
With a certain amount of succes under their belt, the women are now turning their attention to something very important to them. Their Children's education. They are funding neighbourhood schools where their children can study without discrimination.
But, this little boy, like all little boys is fairly ambivalent about going into school. He would rather be playing outside:)
