SUMMARY:Storytellers and Nomads
DESCRIPTION:India is home to a dazzling array of storytelling traditions. From the kalamkari narrative paintings of Andhra Pradesh to the Baul singers of West Bengal\, to the kathputli string puppets of Rajasthan\, every corner of the country is home to rich oral traditions that spark the imagination and provide a container for people to tell and retell their own stories. \nAmongst these storytelling traditions is kathak\, classical dance of North India. The kathakas of ancient India were nomadic bards who traveled from village to village telling stories through dance\, music and expression. These stories drew on mythology\, history and the everyday lived experiences of people. Traditional kathak performances included direct exchange and conversation between the dancer\, musicians\, and spectators. As kathakas engaged their audiences\, they formed a living connection with the history and narratives of a people. \nIn Storytellers and Nomads\, kathak artist Rina Mehta brings this tradition to life with a retelling of Sita’s kidnapping from the great Indian epic\, the Ramayana. Mehta’s rendition of Sita invites audience members to consider why so many people return to her story over and over again\, searching for and finding new meaning.

SUMMARY:Dear Readers: India Currents Needs You!
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nI’m Vandana Kumar\, publisher of India Currents. I know you get a lot of emails asking for your year-end contribution. There are so many worthy organizations that could use your help. But I wanted to take this opportunity to share why we’re different\, and why we need your support now more than ever. \nWe were founded in 1987 with the mission of filling the void of news about our community. Through the years\, India Currents has chronicled the growth of the Indian American community\, its triumphs\, its tragedies\, its luminaries\, and those left behind. \nWe do this every day through stories like our currently-running series on aging\, which focuses on the challenges most Indian Americans face: how to successfully care for our parents\, with little to no culturally appropriate support. \nThis is reporting you won’t find anywhere else (certainly not in the national news!) It is nuanced reporting: our writers face those very challenges themselves\, and deeply understand their complexities. \nAs a nonprofit\, we depend on the support of readers like you to keep this critical work going. That’s why I’m excited to share that we have an incredible opportunity to increase the impact of your donation through NewsMatch\, a call-to-action to support nonprofit news organizations around the country. From now through the end of the year\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, all up to $1\,000 per individual.  \nFor a small\, independent organization like ours\, the NewsMatch fundraising drive will help us deliver the kind of in-depth journalism you’ve come to expect\, every day. It’s the kind of reporting that can make a real difference in our community. And it’s worthy of your support. \nWhat do you say? Will you invest in community-driven journalism? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYes\, I support India Currents!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews for people\, not for profit. Support our reader-funded newsroom. Give now. \nWith gratitude\,\nVandana Kumar \nP.S. Please help us spread the word! Do you have friends and colleagues who share your commitment to supporting journalism like ours? Forward this email to them (and thank you in advance!).

SUMMARY:Why I Moved My Mother To India
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nCaring for a parent can be challenging when their health begins to deteriorate. It’s harder still if you cannot find help. Jaya Padmanabhan recounts her difficult decision to take her mother from her home in the Bay Area to an assisted living facility in India. \nLast week our community came out in force to throw their support behind everything from music (Spardha Learning) and the gift of sight (Sankara Eye Foundation)  to entrepreneurship (TiE) and new ideas (Indiaspora). \nThanksgiving’s coming up! Next week brings family fun and festivities back in focus\, and of course FOOD! \nWhat will your Thanksgiving table look like?  Share your stories and pictures with India Currents! \nIf you like the variety of stories that reflect who we are in the diaspora – show your support! \nFrom now through the end of the year\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, all up to $1\,000 per individual.  \nA little goes a long way in our reader-funded newsroom. \nThank you & best wishes\nMeera Kymal\, Contributing Editor & the India Currents Team \n\n\n\nI Support India Currents!

SUMMARY:Jwala - The Immortal Flame
DESCRIPTION:Abhinaya Dance Company of San Jose will restage Jwala- the Immortal Flame with new work on environmental justice and the fires devastating Northern California. The performance will employ the conventions of classical South Indian dance\, Bharatanatyam\, to explore global warming\, environmental justice and the Northern California fires. Trials and tribulations of survivors will also be part of the narrative. Fire is both a symbol of love\, sex and ecstasy as well as an image of knowledge\, creative inspiration and enlightenment; fire conjures up the suffering of unanticipated disasters such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions; the funeral pyre also suggests death\, liberation and purification. \nContact-abdanceco@gmail.com for more details

SUMMARY:Hatred Has No Home In Santa Clara County-Support IndiaCurrents
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader \n“These victims were stalked and robbed BECAUSE they were South Asian. That – to our eyes – is criminal hatred\, and he now stands charged with hate crimes.” \nJeff Rosen\, Santa Clara County DA writes an op-ed for India Currents denouncing a hate crime on sari-clad South Asian women. \nDo you care for your parents in your home? So many of us do – but finding help isn’t simple – the Khalil Family tells us why. \nOur professional high schooler intern shares what teens are talking about – Does Devi Finally Have Sex? Check out Medha’s review of Never Have I Ever (Season 3) in the Movies Section. \nWhether it’s the midterms or as Chaplains\, desis are showing up to make good on their civic responsibilities. Nicely done! \nOn a more somber note\, after a year and a half\, we conclude our reporting project on the impact of domestic violence on our community. Some tough lessons learned. \nSo\, with Thanksgiving around the corner\, as we gather and give thanks\, it’s a moment to reflect on those who cannot. \nDon’t forget to share your Thanksgiving stories with us and show your support for India Currents! \nFrom now through the end of the year\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, all up to $1\,000 per individual. \nA little goes a long way in our reader-funded newsroom. \nThank you & Best Wishes\nMeera Kymal\, Editor & The India Currents Team \nI SUPPORT INDIACURRENTS(click here)

SUMMARY:We’ve accomplished a lot this year
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nAs we reach the end of 2022\, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the stories and projects that had the biggest impact with our readers this year. In particular\, we’re proud of our “Stop The Hate\, Spread The Love.” series which reported on an alarming uptick in hate crimes and incidents against Asian Americans. \nIndia Currents was the first publication to report an 8-minute anti-Hindu tirade against a Taco Bell patron who was picking up his order. As our story started making the rounds\, other local media picked it up. India Currents made a difference: the alleged perpetrator was identified and charged with a hate crime. \nHow do we move from hate to love? Our series includes portraits of mixed-race couples and will focus on people and initiatives attempting to bridge the divide. \nThis Stop The Hate\, Spread The Love series is just one example of the kind of work you’ve come to expect from us. Our reporting is independent\, inclusive\, and in-depth. Best of all\, it’s community driven and community funded. In other words\, we wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for you. \nEach story you read costs roughly $150 to produce. These stories need to be told. And you can help us continue to do this important work. \nWill you support independent journalism that works for you? \nGive nonprofit. Give today. \nMeera Kymal\nManaging Editor & The India Currents Team \nFrom now until December 31\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, up to $1\,000. For a nonprofit like us\, this is a big deal! \nInvest In Us
