"How did we get here?" From the Sunday edition of the Indian Express soon after the book was published.

[Neeti Nair @NeetiNair]

"Unlike most academic books that undertake such rigorous examinations, Nair steers clear of making her book pedantic and ... inaccessible to a lay reader. The tone of the book is reflective, rather than didactic..." #TheSundayExpress https://t.co/l4LpFRWuUC via @IndianExpress

[Neeti Nair @NeetiNair]

The advocate Shahrukh Alam writes of ideas of justice in our everyday in the context of ongoing cases of hate speech, and arrests, and includes a discussion of ⁦my book “Hurt Sentiments”. #Gandhi #belonging #justice #hatespeech ⁦#prayer ⁩ https://t.co/UDQ73Vq3iZ
