An essay I worked on for a very long time has finally been published (after many travails through the pandemic, and a ton of work by Manujendra Kundu) in this wide-ranging collection. More honoured than I can say to be included.

I don't care how you feel about Johnny Depp or Amber Heard - this is a very bad day for women who are victims.

The silence so many fought against for so many years will once again descend over survivors of sexual violence and domestic violence.

[Donna 🦆 @DonnaDotPaella]

I don't know if you guys realize that there is now a (very famous) precedent for how saying publicly that you are a victim of domestic violence, without naming your abuser, is considered defamation

For people who have been studying the misinformation campaign around the Depp v Heard trial, this verdict is chilling. The success of Depp’s “redemption arc” narrative reveals a lot about our social media platforms and ourselves.

HCU turned up in hundreds to see #RamKeNaam and join a discussion by Anand Patwardhan. The event was hosted by AISA-HCU. Liked the courageous assertion of @AISA_tweets:
"It doesn't matter how hard they try to silence us. We are seeds. We will grow whatever the condition may be."
