How about a few Dalit prosumers?

Futurologist Alvin Toffler predicted in the early 1980s about the emergence of a new economic creature---- the prosumer. A prosumer can be defined as a consumer who’s morphing into a producer.
The term ‘prosumer’ deals with activities that are not monetised. Although they are very different activities, they have a powerful aggregate impact on the money economy. Now there are activities that have been handed over to us conveniently. Take civic duties, for instance. A columnist argues that if one scans one’s neighbourhood, one will find green activists, area locality maintenance managers, social engineers, animal lovers, friends of the corporator, and good samaritans.
The city’s elected representatives and bureaucrats have outsourced their work to them. This new breed of unpaid, determined citizens are fast displacing bureaucrats in the non-money economy. They are the new civic prosumers.
That’s all very fine. But why aren’t Dalits turning prosumers? Why aren’t the successful among them taking it upon themselves to hep their community? Crying hoarse over more quota and other government sops hasn’t really helped. While some form of affirmative action, reservation or otherwise, is necessary from the government’s side for the uplift of those socially deprived, the need of the hour is a few thought leaders and entrepreneurs from the community to reach out to their less fortunate caste members.
Why aren’t there a Dalit IIT passout for instance who helps out say five bright but financially disadvantaged Dalit science students to get into a premier technology college by tutoring them free of cost? Why isn’t there a single Dalit entrepreneur who sets shop and employs worthy Dalit workers? Why does a Mayawati play negative caste politics and keeps out a Dalit Sushil Kumar Shinde from the presidential race as she wants to be the only Dalit power centre at the Centre? Why such narrow vision? Those among the Dalits who have reaped the benefits of liberalisation need to give back a little to the community. We need Dalit prosumers. A whole lot of them.
