At our exhibit opening last night, artists shared how they catalogue oppressions & dream up utopias in the most challenging times. Thank you @bhumikasaraswati.bsky.social, Shrujana Shridhar & Chelsey Luster for bringing your work to @asc.upenn.edu! @annenbergcargc.bsky.social @bzelizer.bsky.social

In the precolonial times if the state or Brahminical institutions recognized a caste group as upper caste (Brahmin or Kshatriya), it would come with entitlements (real or potential).

I have started reading e-paper edition of Indian Express every morning. Feels good to read a newspaper page to page — like the old times!

As we celebrated Savitribai Phule's birth anniversary yesterday, I couldn't help but remember Hari Narke who left us one and half years ago. Narke spent so much of his career gathering historical details about Jotirao and Savitribai Phule, including the accurate information about Savitribai's death.

सामना, सिंहासन, मुक्तासारखे मराठी चित्रपट कुठल्याच स्ट्रिमींग प्लॅटफॉर्मवर नाहीत. क्लासिक चित्रपटांची ही अवस्था असेल तर बाकीच्यांचं काय? मराठी चित्रपटसृष्टीची इतकी वाईट अवस्था का?

मी 'उंबरठा' फार वर्षांपूर्वी पाहिलेला, आता फारसा आठवत नाही. आज 'जैत रे जैत' पाहतोय. चित्रपट ठीकठाक आहे पण स्मिता पाटीलचा ऑरा काही औरच आहे. फ्रेममध्ये असल्यावर नजर अजिबात हटत नाही.

Amit Shah needs to know that people evoking Babasaheb Ambedkar's name in political discourse cannot be equated with chanting a god's name. But the BJP only knows religious vocabulary it seems.

Young people today will never understand that 30 years ago, when we got the internet, we were SO EXCITED to look up song lyrics.

I was really looking forward to a Journalism Studies conference in Lisbon in January but with my Schengen visa ordeal, that doesn't seem likely anymore.

The 'One nation, one election' proposal is anti-democracy. You cannot force legislatures to cut short their five-year terms or even prolong them just because you fancy uniformity or whatever.

Zakir Hussain was supposed to perform at the University of Pennsylvania and we had bought tickets. Was really excited to see him live but I guess that will never happen now. RIP! www.thehindu.com/entertainmen...

At @insidehighered.com I wrote about my concerns about this kind of technology as a threat to human instructional labor, but there's also potential pedagogical issues with introducing a 24/7 assistant that may actually hamper student learning and development.🧵 www.insidehighered.com/opinion/blog...

Eagerly awaiting my copy of the book! To me this is one of a kind as aside from @mimimondal.bsky.social I've not come across many dalit futurist/anti caste lit in SF/Horror. The younger me would be immensely happy to find identifications I'd been searching for in SF for so long 🥹
