Dalit Diva

It is not a coincidence that after days of President Trump and VP Vance putting Rep. Omar in their crosshairs with slanderous public attacks, she gets assaulted at her town hall. Thank God she is okay. If they want leaders to take down the temp, they need to look in the mirror.

Last night's attack on Venezuela fits into a long history of brazen US interventions in Latin America and the world.

Trump’s illegal and unprovoked bombing of Venezuela and kidnapping of its president are grave violations of international law and the U.S. Constitution. These are the actions of a rogue state. The American people do not want another regime change war abroad.

Dear @ThinkCREA a core principle of intersectionality is centering the most marginalized feminists in gender equity spaces. A Nepal conference on feminism must include Nepali #Dalit feminists on stage. This is not an attack, but a caring invitation for leadership to align with the lived realities of the most vulnerable feminists in the country. I applaud the courage of Dalit feminists at Just Futures Pahal, Nepal, and urge you to seriously consider Sarita Pariyar’s remarks and honor her leadership within Nepali feminist movements. Bring her to the stage and see how much the conference benefits from Dalit Feminist courage and leadership. #Jaisavitri #Jaibhim to my fierce and committed sisters! #ThinkCREA #recon2025

Starbucks workers across the country are on an Unfair Labor Practices strike, fighting for a fair contract. While workers are on strike, I won’t be buying any Starbucks, and I’m asking you to join us. Together, we can send a powerful message: No contract, no coffee.

அமெரிக்காவிலும்,உலகளவிலும் சாதியபாகுபாட்டிற்கு எதிரான திருமிகு.தேன்மொழி சௌந்தரராஜனின் பங்களிப்புகளை அங்கீகரித்து தந்தைப் பெரியார் நினைவாக விருதினை வழங்கவுள்ள மாண்புமிகு முதல்வர் திரு. மு. க. ஸ்டாலின் அவர்களுக்கு நன்றிகளைத் தெரிவித்துக்கொள்கிறேன். #VaikomAward #பெரியார் #ADVFRR

@KanimozhiDMK Thank you so much @KanimozhiDMK it is important that we end caste wherever it might roam and carry on the legacy of Periyar and Ambedkar everywhere to ensure justice for all.

தமிழ்நாடு அரசின் இந்த ஆண்டிற்கான வைக்கம் விருதுக்கு தேர்வாகியிருக்கும், அமெரிக்காவைச் சேர்ந்த திருமிகு. தேன்மொழி சௌந்தரராஜன் அவர்களுக்கு வாழ்த்துகள். இந்திய சமூகம் புலம்பெயர்ந்த இடங்களில் எல்லாம் சாதிய கட்டமைப்பை கொண்டு செல்லும் அவலத்திற்கு எதிராக குரலெழுப்பி வருவதோடு, தனது ‘ஈக்வாலிட்டி லேப்ஸ்' அமைப்பின் மூலம் அமெரிக்காவின் கல்வி நிலையங்களிலும், பெருநிறுவனங்களிலும் நிகழும் சாதிய ஒடுக்குமுறைகளுக்கு எதிராகவும் போராடிவரும் அவரது சமூகப் பணி தொடர விழைகிறேன்.

Malabar Marriage Commission of 1891, Brahmins argued that a Shudra (Nair, Goundar, Vellalars, Maravars, Nadars, etc) should submit their wives for Brahmins for sex. Only the Nairs agreed as it was already their custom. Entertaining nair delusions is disastrous for Kerala.

What an honor to receive the 2025 Vaikom Award for Social Justice from the Government of Tamil Nadu—in the name and spirit of Periyar. His legacy calls us to action: end discrimination in all its forms—caste, gender, sexual orientation, religion—and make self-respect a lived reality for everyone. Self-respect to all and let us all be thozars in justice. #CMMKSTALIN | #DyCMUdhay | #TNDIPR | @CMOTamilnadu @mkstalin @Udhaystalin @mp_saminathan

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.” Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.
