The Coffee House Experience#CHE 50 | Many Facets of Resistance against Fascism ft. Kasturi Basu and Dwaipayan BanerjeeLike many, Kasturi and Dwaipayan, an independent documentary filmmaker couple, were shell-shocked when the 2019 election results came out, especially by the huge surge in support for right-wing politics in West Bengal. From then on, they dedicated themselves totally to building long-term socio-cultural fronts to resist the neo-fascist right-wing hegemony.

Kasturi WavesBhasha Dibas - International Mother Language DayI am not a historian. The facts learnt through history books and the web form part of my narration.Bangladesh got it's Independence from Pakistan on 16th December 1971. The revolt to separate from being part of Pakistan was fuelled by the parallel revolt of discarding the policy of adopting Urdu instead of the mother language of the erstwhile East Pakistan, Bengali. This is a rare example in World History, where a whole nation, irrespective of religious differences, fought together for reinstating the pride of their mother-language.This is my humble tribute on the International Mother...

Kasturi WavesTej - A poem by Debabrata Singha, Narration - Kasturi BasuThis is a poem in one of the bengali local vernacular dialect. It echoes that Women's liberation can happen when every girl child from all parts of the World receive education. Gender equality is possible only when the girl child understands that education shows the way to independence.

Kasturi WavesA Tribute to Sukumar RaySukumar Ray was a genius who could mellifluously blend wit & satire into poems and present them as nonsensical rhymes & stories. Within a short span of 36 years of life, he had proved time and again that he was larger than life. This is my tribute to the exceptional poet and writer of Bengali literature. A part of the narration is from the foreword written by Satyajit Ray in "Sukumar Sahitya Samagra".
