B.R. Ambedkar’s time at Columbia University (1913–16) left an enduring mark on his social and political thought. This essay discusses efforts by the Ambedkar Initiative to draw on private papers, personal correspondence and other archival material to develop a finding aid documenting Ambedkar’s time at Columbia in the interest of deepened scholarly access, public pedagogy and institutional accountability. The Initiative brings the world’s oldest and the world’s largest democracy into a shared field of engagement, with the finding aid approaching the Ambedkar Archive in America and in India together as a transnational archive, each shaped by distinct logics of curation impelled by divergent ethical and political stakes. Considering them together can reframe conversations about Columbia University’s awkward relationship with issues of public access, critical pedagogy and mass intellectuality.
