An Interview with Anand Patwardhan
Published By: eSocialSciences | Published Date: April, 10 , 2017For over 40 years Anand Patwardhan’s documentary films have stood for freedom of expression. He faced censorship on numerous occasions, took the government to court, and won each time. Anand is not just a filmmaker but an activist in the cause of Indian democracy, clearly under threat today. In this candid conversation with the author, Anand discusses his views on the challenges before us, and most importantly,
how he perceives both Gandhi and Ambedkar as liberation theologists whose ideas are in danger of being revised by their enemies. [First published in Countercurrents.org, April 5, 2017]
