The Just Table by Aru Nayyar

Today, I will be discussing organized labor at the Salt March, also known as the Dandi March Movement In India! I am from India and wanted to learn more about the past that led to India’s Independence. 	In this podcast, I will be focusing specifically on the role that food played in the march, both as a practical necessity and a symbol of resistance that highlights major events. So let's dig deep into the history of this event. In the early 20th century, India was a colony of the British Empire, and the British Raj controlled every aspect of Indian life, including the production and distribution of salt. The salt tax was one of the many oppressive policies imposed by the British, and it made salt very expensive for the common people. Lastly, there is a little surprise for you all to celebrate International Women's Day! I hope you enjoy and keep an eye for the next episode!
