Friends, this is a slim and accessible biography of one of Kerala’s foremost Dalit revolutionaries, Ayyankali. I had the good fortune to co-write it with M Nisar, and it was published by Other Books, Calicut. Please get your copy, it’s only Rs 150
I AM SO TRIGGERED TO SEE PROGRESSIVE PEOPLE FOLLOW THIS PERSON. What social justice do u all talk about. you all need to rethink your politics. don’t be complacent. i will interpret your silence as complicity.
I lost my father tonight at Rajiv Gandhi Hospital, Dilshad Garden. I kept trying to get on just 1 phone call with him, never made it past the authorities. He was utterly confused, scared and I didn't get a chance to tell him that I hadn't abandoned him. I will never forget this.
have been seeing these privileged indian teenagers use racist slurs on instagram to look cool. a message for them - i am pretty sure you all will go out of the country to study. unlike india, universities abroad take racism very seriously. don’t cry later when they send you back.
If we celebrate black-marketing of MLAs as Chanakyaness, how can we deride black-marketing of medicines?
Moral standards that we set for our political leadership has an impact on our own lives too. For they lead us, both politically & morally.
A generation is watching.
Hello @IAF_MCC, Is this man really part of the Indian Air Force or is this a fake account? If fake, do note that he is misusing IAF's name. If not fake, then as an Indian woman I'd very much like to know if his creepy tweet about @RanaAyyub reflects #IAF 's attitude to women🙏🏽
.@KamalaHarris, @POTUS needs to urgently waive COVID19 vaccination patents. India had over 2000 reported deaths yesterday. Only 1.3% Indians have been fully vaccinated. We need to be able to manufacture more vaccines in India. @JoeBiden@SenSanders
It's important not to ignore politics of the country, even if you enjoy a certain privilege. A large majority of the deaths in the past months is not due to the pandemic, but as a result of political priorities of the ruling party. So many of these deaths could have been avoided.
Some tips for people using HOME OXYGENATION/CYLINDERS if it helps:
✅ Target oxygen saturation of 88-92% only. It's safe and best. Do not chase 100% saturation on your finger pulse probe - it will harm more than benefit. (Also, your cylinder will last longer this way.)
We have come to a point where we celebrate bail for innocents, with hefty sureties that they clearly cannot afford, instead of questioning their illegal inhuman arrests.
The bar is not low, it’s disappearing.
