Description

Mantra of the Oppressed is an equally creative and intellectual
enquiry that discusses and evaluates India’s arrest into
autocracy. When activists are jailed and the homes of the
oppressed are bulldozed, this handbook of creative resistance
colourfully criticises the new majoritarian influence and its
impact on oppressed Indian minority communities. Through
incredible imagery and imagination, this remarkable collection
of poems, essays, and quotes beckons its readers to open both
their hearts and minds to an empathetic examination of India’s
current state of political affairs. While Jaihoon decries the
descent of India’s powerful pluralistic tradition into a land
without dissent, he also decorates a dialogue based on hope,
tolerance and mutual respect.
