I went out with friends tonight after months and felt so out of place. I was quite anxious & surprisingly sad. Don’t know why I felt I’m carrying an ocean of grief. I tried dancing, I tried laughing, I tried being silly. Nothing helped. I left the party feeling lonely & empty.

Day 20/31 of Indian history 📚 papers The third instalment of recommendations on the theme of religion focus on interactions between Hindu and Islamic traditions. Also, most of the readings I post here are available on the internet for free, just use your googling skills.

Day 19/31 of Indian History 📚📄 Continuing the recommendations on the question of religion. Move away from TV news circus abt temple-mosque binary to patient reading of credible scholarship that examines how people in the past made sense of their sectarian identities & conflicts

A letter written to my advisor at the behest of SR Farooqui attempting to have me drop the charges against his nephew. My adviser, refused to reply and instead sent the email to me. Personal and professional pressure was applied to ANYONE who knew me. #mahmoodfarooqui #feebleno

@PriyamvadaGopal The reason that they have tried to make Dan Hussein a pariah is that he 1). failed to convince me to drop charges after AR called him, asking him to contact me, and 2) testified to what I told him when I had managed to leave the house after the rape. He told the truth about them.

@PriyamvadaGopal Yes. Allison Busch provided this so that it could be submitted to the court records of the many ways the family attempted to silence me. I repeat. Mahmood Farooqui was found guilty by the initial courts. Anusha Rizvi also contacted my friends to pressure me into dropping charges.

Shattered by the extensive inventory of otherwise intelligent and supposedly progressive people — many of whom I respect deeply — determined to rehabilitate Mahmood Farooqui, through an act of collaborative, conscious forgetting. The only right to forget lies with the survivor.

Mahmood Farooqui is trying to rehabilitate himself by associating with others. Worth looking at the evidence in his rape case, where he was acquitted for barrelling ahead even when the woman, admittedly, said no.

If you haven't already read @kavita_krishnan's piece on what Noam Chomsky’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein says about progressive politics, now is the time to read it scroll.in/article/108902…

Dhurandhar works because it taps into a revenge fantasy shaped by Hindu nationalist politics — offering moral supremacy over a Muslim Pakistan. If this is the cinema that sells, India is heading to a very dark place.

The Great Shamsuddin Family is simply a great sham from a family trying to erase the fact that its director is a rapist and its producer, his apologist. @Apoorvanand__ is my dissent loud enough for you to recognize now?
Apoorvanand अपूर्वानंद@Apoorvanand__

The Great Shamsuddin Family is a gift to Hindus from Anusha Rizvi, wrapped in love: they can feel this large heart, quivering with foreboding and pulsating with desire for life. frontline.thehindu.com/arts-and-cultu…

@CMarrewa Stay strong. I know this is probably bringing back all the trauma. I hope you're getting the support you need.

One of my advisors, a historian,told me to make sure I keep everything. At the time I thought it was an insensitive comment. I could hardly keep myself together. Now I realize the practicality.

That was my mistake. Mahmood Farooqui is the rapist, not Anusha Rizvi. She apologized for him and then tried to silence me in a variety of ways. I’m sure this is all in the judicial records that I still have from the trials . The emails, the texts, the WhatsApp’s, the testimonies
