A Brahmin-born woman renounced Hinduism over caste and became an anticaste figure

Evidence

Pandita Ramabai (1858–1922), Gandhi’s contemporary from India, did not have his unfortunate instincts. Though she was born a Brahmin, she renounced Hinduism for its patriarchy and its practice of caste, became a Christian, and quarrelled with the Anglican Church too, earning a place of pride in India’s anticaste tradition. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 222
