"There will come a day when the rotten mess of majoritarian & misogynist evil decays to its very core, collapses, and becomes the manure for living things." - A letter from feminist & historian #JDevika to Kerala's @WCC_Cinema. #Avalkoppam #Metoo

#JDevika: "There is no hubris in human history that has not collapsed under its own weight. There is a saying in Malayalam: adiyolam cheenjhaale valam aakoo – only if it rots to its very core can it become manure." #WomenSupportingWomen #MeToo

#JDevika's words to @WCC_Cinema should be read by every women, every activist, every member of a marginalised social group who speaks up for equality. It is a long and tiring road, and when you raise your voice, the backlash is inevitable.

I've bookmarked this for each day I find myself wilting. #JDevika: "Finding the strength to survive this normalized everyday torture by the state, its uncivil society & the media is the challenge before women who care for their dignity..."
