The Cost of Apathy: Why India Ignored Its Own Prophets
"In every country the intellectual class is the most influential class. This is the class which can foresee, advise and lead... The entire destination of the country depends upon it."
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar

I know it's hero worship but let me confess this: Arundhati Roy is the walking perfection of the finest human character alive on this revolving planet—Earth. She is made of diamond, yet remains humble to humanity. She reminds me of Hypatia of Alexandria (c. 360–415 AD).

#ArundhatiRoy en “Mi refugio y mi tormenta”, una invitación a leer su vida como si fuera una novela.

Vanuit hun perspectief als zevenjarigen bekjken we de wereld, en vooral hun familie. Meerdere generaties bevolken het boek: hun ouders, hun grootouders en overgrootouders. Dan nog ooms, tantes en nichtjes. […]https://www.filmvanalledag.nl/2026/06/07/tussen-de-geverniste-loopjongens/
"Our minds are still racing back and forth, longing for a return to 'normality', trying to stitch our future to our past and refusing to acknowledge the rupture. But the rupture exists. And in the midst of this terrible despair, it offers us a chance to rethink the doomsday machine we have built for ourselves. Nothing could be worse than a return to normality."
