AUTO COURT - Story of a Dalit Woman a film by Shibi Peter at VIBGYOR date: 20th February 2010 time: 5pm where: sangeeta nataka academi (regional theatre) campus, thrissur screening of the film will be followed by a panel discussion Dalit Women’s Right to Livelihood – the Chitralekha Campaign Chair: Ajitha Discussants: Rekha Raj, Advocate Preetha, Elizabeth Philip, Bobby Kunhu you are invited. please extend this invitation to your friends/family. -- "Sometimes — quite often — the same people who are capable of a radical questioning of, say, economic neo-liberalism or the role of the state, are deeply conservative socially — about women, marriage, sexuality, our so-called 'family values' — sometimes they're so doctrinaire that you don't know where the establishment stops and the resistance begins. For example, how many Gandhian/Maoist/ Marxist Brahmins or upper caste Hindus would be happy if their children married Dalits or Muslims, or declared themselves to be gay? Quite often, the people whose side you're on, politically, have absolutely no place for a person like you in their social, cultural or religious imagination.That's a knotty problem politically radical people can come at you with the most breathtakingly conservative social views and make nonsense of the way in which you have ordered your world and your way of thinking about it and you have to find a way of accommodating these contradictions within your worldview." -Arundhati Roy ANIL Anil Tharayath Varghese New Delhi-110058 INDIA Mobile - 09971170738 email - [email protected] -- You cannot build anything on the foundations of caste. You cannot build up a nation, you cannot build up a morality. Anything that you will build on the foundations of caste will crack and will never be a whole. -AMBEDKAR http://venukm.blogspot.com http://www.shelfari.com/kmvenuannur http://kmvenuannur.livejournal.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
