Such amazing stuff by @FelixPal8 , @sciencespo @thecaravanindia ! Mapping the RSS network for over six years!

Open Access | Seeing the Sangh is the world’s first comprehensive map of the organisational affiliates surrounding the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh—which together constitute the largest far-right network in the world.

This interactive dataset, which currently includes comprehensive qualitative and quantitative data on over two thousand and five hundred organisations, is stored at a repository housed at the Science Po’s Centre for International Studies (CERI), and has been fact-checked and published by The Caravan.

We cannot use mild words like “miscarriage” or “travesty” to suitably describe this shameful horror. We need new words to speak about and challenge this

The ironical strength in organizing a panel on “Anthropological Practice and Illiberal Attachments” centered on upper caste subject making in India at the AAA 2024 in Florida, of all places. So thankful to Akhil Kang, Akanksha Awal and Pinky Hota for steering this ❤️

Her lecture was a masterclass in Sikhi, caste and anti-caste legislation in the UK and the complexities of Sikh identity in the current global order. Thank you @DrOpinderjit for your time and for such an insightful and meaningful lecture and discussion for the students.

[Bhoomika Joshi @bhoomikajoshi]

It was a delight to host @DrOpinderjit for a guest lecture in a course on religion and society in South Asia that I teach at @NUSingapore. She is the Visiting Chair of Sikh Studies at NUS for 2024 and is the Director of the Centre for Sikh and Panjabi Studies at the @wlv_uni

We missed Sidharthan Maunaguru & Seuty Sabur who couldn’t be present due to unforeseen reasons much like @MaliniSur @mgergan Nosheen Ali, Norman Baig, @DollyKikon and Tahir Ganie whose contributions to the @culanth #Hotspots issue are crucial to the conversation.

[Bhoomika Joshi @bhoomikajoshi]

At the @ACSAMadison 2024, some of the contributors to the @culanth #hotspots on ‘Majoritarian Politics in South Asia’ (2021) convened to revisit their essays and thoughts in a double panel. The issue was edited by @r_gov11, @Mubbashir_R and @bhoomikajoshi https://t.co/3tobT50MlE

[Bhoomika Joshi @bhoomikajoshi]

And @SarahEleazar spoke of the politics of the mob and blasphemy in the working class neighborhood of Jaranwala in Pakistan. @bhoomikajoshi discussed the long history of ‘temple Hinduism’ in contemporary India. Thanks to @Mubbashir_R & @amyleigh_j for their able chairing.

[Bhoomika Joshi @bhoomikajoshi]

@Maheshchan22726’s searing piece on the making of Uttarakhand as an upper-caste state. A detailed investigation into the systemic exclusion and suppression of Dalits, which has long been papered over by the glorified romance with the hills.
