Pramila BK
“I want to learn to speak and write about Dalit and caste issues—and empower others to do the same.”
Pramila BK, a Dalit woman from Sindhupalchok, is a village school teacher and a Bachelor's degree student. Despite enduring severe personal violence, varied forms of discrimination, and profound poverty, Pramila stands as a testament to resilience. She is fiercely determined to leverage her lived experiences to challenge caste and gender-based injustices through her writing and activism. Having already published in local media outlets, she aims to write with even greater power. Pramila is committed to using her voice to advocate against the marginalization of Dalit women and to integrate her learning into her daily life. She eagerly anticipates the Just Futures Fellowship as an opportunity to deepen her understanding of caste, gender, and sexuality, while also improving her English skills.
