Tonight, we talk with Karen Ishizuka, author of Serve the People, about her panel at the upcoming Howard Zinn Book Fair. Then we spotlight #DalitWomenFight, a hashtag that represents a feisty group of Dalit women activists who were on a tour of North America to raise awareness and visibility on deep-seated casteism and caste-based violence that women in Indian society continue to face. We wrap up tonight’s show with a fun discussion on the Millet Project with local Berkeley-based scientist and researcher Amrita Hazra.
