Ambedkar launched his own journal after caste Hindus suppressed his voice

Evidence

Around this time, Ambedkar started his first journal, Mook Nayak (Leader of the Voiceless). Tilak’s newspaper, Kesari, refused to carry even a paid advertisement announcing the publication of Mook Nayak. The editor of Mook Nayak was P.N. Bhatkar, the first Mahar to matriculate and go to college. Ambedkar wrote the first thirteen editorials himself. In the first one, he described Hindu society in a chilling metaphor—as a multi-storeyed tower with no staircase and no entrance. Everybody had to die in the storey they were born in. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 316
