What are the linkages between violence, class, poverty, labor and globalization?

What is the media’s responsibility in covering and challenging violence that seems to be an everyday reality in India and in other South Asian countries?

What is the role of the South Asian diaspora in engaging with these issues and challenging patriarchy and sexism within their own communities in the US and not disregard it as violence that happens “elsewhere”?

Hear excerpts from a talk by noted feminist activist Kavita Krishnan  when she visited the Center for South Asia Studies at UC Berkeley recently, and a live interview with feminist journalist Kalpana Sharma who is here at UC Berkeley’s journalism school this semester. Plus Poetry, community calendar and more.
