A Book Talk and Q/A with T. M. Krishna
About this Event

India's constitution-makers had to invent a visual language for a new nation - a flag, an emblem, an anthem, a motto. T. M. Krishna traces how the tricolour, the Ashokan lions, and the Preamble took shape, and what they will ask of us today.
Biography
A brilliant and accomplished vocalist in the Carnatic tradition of classical music, T.M. Krishna also speaks and writes about a wide range of issues, not confined to the cultural sphere. His interests span the breadth of left-wing activism, be it the environment, the caste system, social reform, religious reform, combating communalism, innovation in classical music, and so on. He has started and is involved in many organizations whose work is spread across the spectrum of music and culture.
