Christ, Creed & Caste: A history of Caste in India & the appearance of Dalit Theology in the aftermath of the Nicene Creed
Rev’d Canon Peniel Rajkumar guides you through the long arc of caste history in India, its entanglement with religious tradition, and the complex ways Christianity has both challenged and absorbed caste structures. He then traces the emergence of Dalit Theology as a justice-driven movement shaped in conversation with the Nicene Creed, offering a clear and compelling vision of Christology centred on liberation and dignity.
