Reviewers are so struck by the depth of Umar Khalid's book, Fractured Communities...This is the scholar a cruel carceral state, presided over by Narendra Modi, has chosen to lock up for six years. Friends, despair about our future!
Fractured Communities is the history of the Adivasi communities of Singhbhum, in present-day Jharkhand. Brilliantly argued by Umar Khalid-it is both a valuable work of history & a critique of histories written from positions of power.
Umar Khalid’s brilliant PhD thesis has just been published as a book. It is a rigorously researched and richly readable history of Adivasis in Chotanagpur. May his cruel incarceration end soon, and Dr Khalid write more fine works of historical scholarship.
@juggernautbooks
it is a privilege to read umar khalid’s book. there will be a day when he comes out and we’ll be waiting for him. this book shows umar khalid the scholar, not just umar khalid the political prisoner. he is the only leader i’ll follow. 🤎
