minal hajratwala on 'leaving india'

apr 23rd, 2009
 
i had already seen minal's post about her book tour on the stanford linked-in discussion groups, so i decided to listen to this podcast from kqed.org.
 
apart from the usual (misguided and instigated by christist propaganda) moaning about caste, interesting interview. she also didn't claim that her sexual preference (lesbian) was a cause of great friction with her family. all in all, i thought this was a refreshing change from the trash-india and trash-hinduism rantings of the likes of the execrable deepa mehta. maybe that is an FOB problem, and the so-called ABCDs are more sensible, after?
