Project Heartland captures the struggles of people from marginalised communities, mainly Dalits in Gujarat. It shows the courage and determination of Dalit women and men to assert their rights despite all odds. Project Heartland wants these brave people to be known, recognised, and be seen as an inspiration to others.
This YouTube mini series brings out different stories from the heartland of Gujarat which are often left unheard.
In Episode 2 of the series, meet the men who started the Una movement. Here we tell the story of the tanners of Gujarat, the Una incident, and the after-effects of it.
