The colonial state, with the help of its scheming local collaborators, has cast a net of abuse and exploitation that is tightening around these Adivasis, much like a hangmans noose does. Everything they hold dear their land, homes, history, traditions, religion, families has fallen victim to the grand colonial plan of building a magnificent but merciless empire for the Queen. However, when a people are all but crushed into dust and their identities threatened with a complete erasure, they erupt like a hot, angry whiplash of fire with a roaring so loud that it reverberates in the very heart of the empire and sends a frisson of fear up the spines of those in power. A fire that stokes a rebellion. And at the heart of this rebellion is the twenty-five-year-old Birsa Munda. He decides what must be done to save his community and leads the Adivasis in fighting back to reclaim their lives. A lion-hearted warrior. Healer. Spiritual guide. A forgotten hero. Based on true events, this epic tale of courage is a tribute to the life of Birsa Munda, who in his very short life, mobilized the tribal community, rebelled against forced conversions, envisioned a fairer, more just society and died fighting for it. A thrilling account that chronicles what most history books dont mention, The Legend of Birsa Munda is the story of a subaltern tribal hero, whose contribution to Indias struggle for independence must never be forgotten.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manjul Publishing House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45872551264454,"sku":"DADAX9390924502","price":14.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/913Lg8Bn3KL.jpg?v=1779515582","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/the-legend-of-birsa-munda-english","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
