In rage and endurance...not only in the characters Saoli Mitra played but in her journeys, her writings, her storytelling. A part of me is lost, so much of my being has been shaped due to her. Pronam.

Talking to fresh batches of Sociology BA students reminds me of my first day at Presidency College. An Orientation lecture at Hindu College with 150 students, their curiosity, anxiety suggests journeys the discipline has made in Indian academia @SociologyDoing @isa_sociology

Through RG Kar incident, I write on safety of women in workplace, women doctors/medical profession. What about Nirbhaya Fund? What does data on doctors suicide say? doingsociology.org/2024/08/2… @ECPR_Gender @ResearchLex @isa_sociology @RC09_ISA @LSEGenderTweet @genderpol @UnionSGU
What an emotional match the 2024 semifinals was. While Paolini will play the finals, Vekic played, cried, pained her way through the longest women's semifinal match in Wimbledon history. Both women were such a pleasure to watch.

These PhDs are opening up new areas of kinship, intimacy and violence studies, looking at contemporary India, its paradoxes and ambivalences. @SociologyDoing @ECPR_Gender @ResearchLex @RC09_ISA @isagdmag @socialpolicyind @jils_nujs @JagoriSafeDelhi @PLD_India @NirantarTrust

Glimpse of our just concluded #symposium, ‘Towards a #Pedagogy of #Care-Capacity Building in Indian Higher-ed Academia for Ethical and Inclusive #PedagogicalFramework’, organised in collaboration with @WennerGrenOrg
I spoke on feminist pedagogy and Pedagogies of Care at two different workshops in the last 10 days, to reflect that building friendships and creating discomfort are essential to pedagogy. The two can coexist. @nihban @Rituparna37 @IFJPglobal @RC09_ISA @ResearchLex @ECPR_Gender
