Gender Agenda Newsletter: That safety playbook (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(This article is part of the Gender Agenda newsletter. To get the newsletter in your inbox every Sunday, subscribe here.) Itâs another day, another incident of violence against a woman, and another return to the same old playbook. This is how the playbook goes: whenever a woman is molested, raped, or assaulted in a public space, the immediate response is that she should have stayed indoors. Or that other women should now stay indoors. This, authorities will argue, is protection. Ever opened a
The Hindu on Books newsletter: Why we explore (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(This story is part of The Hindu on Books newsletter that comes to you with book reviews, reading recommendations, interviews with authors and more. Subscribe here.) What makes us human?

(This story is part of The Hindu on Books newsletter that comes to you with book reviews, reading recommendations, interviews with authors and more. Subscribe here.) Last week, HarperCollins scored a goal over Penguin Random House India (PRHI) by announcing that it would publish Sonia Gandhi’s memoir, Belonging: A Journey of Love, this November. Why, you may ask, is this such a big deal when there are so many political memoirs being published almost every week? For one, Gandhi has had a remarkab
