Listen Later

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring on Santosh Kumar and Sandeep Rauzi of workersunity.com to give a retrospective look at the massive Indian Farmers' Protests that went on for over a year, from the perspective of journalist activists on the ground! We discuss the conditions of Indian agricultural workers before the protests, the "Farm Bills" that sparked the protests, what the protests were like, and what has happened since the Indian government has dropped the proposed bills! Sandeep Rauzi and Santosh Kumar are activists and citizen journalists that helped co-found Workers' Unity - an independent media platform dedicated to the struggles of the toiling masses, which focused heavily on the Farmers' Protests. In addition to their website workersunity.com, you can also find them on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/workersunity, and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WorkersUnity18.
