As Indians become Australia’s largest migrant community, what conversations are we still avoiding? Growing up, Dalit-Australian artist Kirtika Kain hid her caste. Today, she’s one of the few artists in Australia placing it at the centre of her work. Kain joins SBS Spice’s Dilpreet Taggar to discuss why reading Dr B.R. Ambedkar in community, thousands of kilometres from India, still gives her the strength to continue the fight her ancestors would have wanted her to. Watch on YouTube or listen here.
