He never used his cultural capital for any personal gains. Kunhaman was equally critical of Dalits getting into petty squabbles, without indulging in any serious thoughts. Good that this has come at a time when all media are only interested in highlighting his own experiences of deprivations, and stories of caste discrimination. Much of his serious writings and perspectives need to be brought to light for the new generation to ponder over. His insights into contemporary tribal studies, for example, need wider consideration.
