Dalit Pentecostalism

The story of the Indian Pentecostal Church of God (IPC) has been overlooked in the historiography of Pentecostalism not only in the West, but also in India. The adherents of this movement are predominantly the disenfranchised and marginalized people called "Dalits." The author narrates and interprets the historical development of the IPC in Andhra and also highlights the contributions of Dalits to the movement in an organized and comprehensive manner, so that it will be easily accessible to those who are interested in indigenous Pentecostalmovements in India.
