Hear #metoo in India
In this podcast, we chat with Pallavi Guha about her book " Hear #metoo in India: News, Social Media, and Anti-Rape and Sexual Harassment Activism ". The #metoo movement caught the imagination of the world and was also a topic of discussion in India. But what was the actual reality of the discussion around #metoo? Was it a real grassroots movement or it was a controlled discussion where the voice of certain sections of Indian society was promoted while the majority of the people are left behind? Pallavi's book looks at many such issues in a detailed manner.
