SUMMARY:India’s Democratic Longevity and its Hugely Troubled Trajectory
DESCRIPTION:India celebrated 75 years of its independence last year with a lot of enthusiasm.\nCelebrations did not hide the fact it is also one of the leading countries which is passing through what is popularly known as ‘democratic backsliding’. \nA country which\, like many others\, is using democratic processes to secure undemocratic outcomes\, where freely contested elections are being deployed for the purpose of expressing\, cultivating\, or enhancing majoritarian prejudices—to target minorities and turn them into lesser citizens. \nIn this scenario\, there is an urgent need to unpack this journey of democratic India further \, there is a need to make a distinction between India as an electoral democracy and India as a liberal democracy. \n\n\nBackground Reading for the talk:\n\nHow India’s Ruling Party Erodes Democracy by Ashutosh Varshney\nJournal of Democracy\, Volume 33\, Number 4\, October 2022\, pp. 104-118  (Article) \n\n\n\nSpeaker: \nProf Ashutosh Varshney is Sol Goldman Professor of International Studies and the Social Sciences and Professor of Political Science at Brown University\, where he also directs the Center for Contemporary South Asia. Previously\, he taught at Harvard (1989-98) and the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor (2001-2008). \nHis books include Battles Half Won: India’s Improbable Democracy (2013)\, Collective Violence in Indonesia (2009)\, Ethnic Conflict and Civic Life: Hindus and Muslims in India (Yale 2002)\, India in the Era of Economic Reforms (1999)\, and Democracy\, Development and the Countryside: Urban-Rural Struggles in India (Cambridge 1995).

SUMMARY:Beyond the Sharp Edge: Iconography of Indic Arms
DESCRIPTION:Indian arms and armor are frequently adorned with auspicious and sacred imagery to induce shakti (divine power) to enter them\, thus transforming functional objects into implements that hold within them the quality of numen—magical or divine power. This presentation will survey the varieties of Hindu sacred images—goddesses\, gods\, demi-gods\, mythological beasts—that adorn arms and armor of the Indian subcontinent\, and explore the underlying reasons why these specific images may have been chosen among the vast pantheon of Indian sacred imagery. \nPlease join us for a presentation by Ravinder Reddy on October 21 where he will discuss the varieties of Hindu sacred images that adorn arms and armor of the Indian subcontinent. \nRegistration in advance is required for this event.

SUMMARY:26th United Nations Association Film Festival - TO KILL A TIGER Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 26th annual United Nations Association Film Festival in Palo Alto for the screening of TO KILL A TIGER\, directed by Nisha Pahuja. Please note that this film contains material that may be considered a sensitive subject matter for some audiences. \nDescription:\nOn the night of a family wedding in Jharkand\, India\, Ranjit fears the worst after waking up to find his daughter is not home. Dragged into the woods\, she was gang raped by three men. The village solution is to marry her to one of them. Ranjit refuses. Instead\, he challenges the status quo\, determined to get justice for his daughter. On his quest\, he works with a gender-justice NGO that sees in him an example for other men to follow. As the financial and emotional pressure of the case mounts\, the villagers turn against Ranjit\, and the boys’ families threaten murder. \nBiography:\nNisha Pahuja is a freelance filmmaker\, writer\, producer\, and researcher. Her third film\, The World Before Her\, won the World Documentary Competition Award at Tribeca Film Festival\, where it premiered. The film depicts two young women who live miles apart but also worlds away—contestants in the Miss India pageant in Mumbai and the young women at a fundamentalist Hindu camp in nearby Aurangabad. The film is a meditation on the nature of women’s empowerment in an India still dominantly patriarchal. \nCornelia Principe has been working in documentary production\, starting out as a broadcaster\, and then moving to independent producer and director. Currently in production on the one-off Grinder\, recent projects include the feature The Rise and Fall of the Grumpy Burgel and theGemini award-winning Diamond Road\, which she Co-produced for TVOntario\, History Television\, Discovery Times and Arte/ZDF. Other credits include: Producer for PTV Productions on the series Resolutions for Discovery Health and The Life Channel; Directed and Co-produced Poverty\, Chastity\, Obedience; Co-produced Divorce What I See with Producer/ Director Sun-Kyung Yi and worked with Emmy award-winning Producer/ Director Shelley Saywell on several of her acclaimed documentaries including\, A Child’s Century of War which was short-listed for an Oscar and Legacy of Terror. From 1993-1997 Cornelia was the Associate Producer for TVO’s social-political documentary strands The View From Here and Human Edge.

SUMMARY:Walk to End Domestic Violence
DESCRIPTION:The walk is a powerful symbol of our commitment to ending the cycle of violence. As we come together and walk side by side\, we send a message of hope and solidarity to those who have been affected by intimate partner violence. \nThe theme is “Rewrite Your Story” — SAVE’s advocates help thousands of survivors rewrite their stories every year. Will you help us expand our reach to rewrite more stories by inviting your friends and family to walk with us? \nIt is less than a mile and accessible to anyone who shares our passion for a safer world. Before we embark on our walk\, we will have art activities — writing posters for the walk and designing tote bags and purple ribbons for you to take home. For survivors\, we’ve created a safe space to share your story with a compassionate community.
