Book launch - Viyyukka - The Morning Star (Birmingham)

Join us for an in-person India Labour Solidarity event for the launch of Viyyukka: The Morning Star edited by P Aravinda and B Anuradha and publsihed by Daraja Press.

Viyyukka: The Morning Star is a rare and compelling anthology of lived experiences written by women revolutionaries in India fighting against the state and mining corporations to preserve their jal, jangal and jameen (land, forest, water). These stories are from the 300 stroeis already published in Telugu by Virasam.

Speakers: Firoze Manjhi (Daraja Press) and a translator. More TBC

Please note that this event will contain strong themes throughout.
