The level of whataboutery on whatever Spivak did in JNU is unbearable. Irrespective of whether someone has read her work or not, whether she knew or didn't about the background of people asking questions from the audience whether people knew the so called 'correct' pronounciation of something or not, EVERYONE HAS A RIGHT TO ASK QUESTION!!! Especially, if u hv agreed to speak on a public platform, then get ready to bear the ire of the audiences if they disagree with ur arguments or ur positionality as an academic. The speaker doesn't gets to decide what r the 'right' kind of questions & what is the correct way of asking them.

The education system that Macaulay formulated for India originated in Prussia after its defeat to France in 1806, as a universal education aiming to make unthinkingly obedient soldiers and was later adopted by countries like Britain.

Raja Rammohun Roy, born #today in 1772, who fought vicious orthodoxy to pioneer every liberalising movement in India: free press, prevention of widow burning or economic drain under colonialism. At every step, he lived by  reason. Our age stands to benefit by reading him again

The Prachi ad released by the @BombayShavingCo is a wake up call to the advertising and marketing industry.

The sheer insensitivity of the company which continues to defend the act comes from an extreme sense of power and privilege, where the victim - Prachi - is reduced to a body part, facial hair.

This is precisely the kind of problem we’ll probably see more of as social media becomes mainstream. Everything is gamified so whoever capitalises on the latest trend can draw a lottery. The world was always an insensitive place but social media will make it million times more.

This is how clickbait journalism works. Do you think this person doesn’t have a mirror at home? The entire story is written deliberately to evoke 

responses like ‘hey, it is not your caste, it is you’. This is EXACTLY what Manisha Mondal WANTS!

More Power to Manisha Mondal from The Print and congratulations on her article “Being Dalit on a dating app”. All this vile trolling on social media only goes on to further prove the might of her pen and that she has rattled the entire ecosystem. Bull’s eye!

The Print takes note of the vile, casteist comments targeted at our photojournalist Manisha Mondal. They are sexist, objectionable, often bordering on criminality. Their attacks also put our reporter at risk. We are making a record of this. If the behaviour continues, we will report the handles
