I was on a photo walk with a few young photographers! Daryaganj.
I stood near Delhi Gate and took this image. It was about 8:30 am. The roads were empty. Sunday morning. Plus, the metros were largely shut. Jantar Mantar 1.0

Chinmay Tumbe's book is superb!

ALT A framed cover of the book “India Moving” by Chinmay Tumbe stands on a table beside a potted cactus and two stacked notebooks. The cover reads “INDIA MOVING: A HISTORY OF MIGRATION,” with a crowd and people climbing onto a train at the bottom, and the poster also says “Review by Rajiv Chopra” and “www.rajivchopra.com.”
I just finished reading "Stolen Revolution," a people's history of 'post-revolution Iran."

The book is readable but only presents a partial picture of post-revolution Iran as seen through the stories of a few people. #bookreviews #iran

People are bored and social media algorithms encourage you to doom scroll. The mighty and opaque algorithms also make it difficult for a creator to stand out, especially in the mass of senseless stuff. The ease of posting media has created a mini-nightmare!

Here’s the incomparable Dave Allen discussing how to teach your child the time. It’s one of the most perfectly delivered stand up comedy performances of all time. Absolute genius.
Finally, a young, thoughtful girl. What was she thinking of? I wonder.

Are more than 50 right wing goons threatening with violence right outside the mandir marg police station not a "breach of peace" for the Delhi Police?
This hooliganism is being enabled while peaceful protestors are being framed as disruptors in the imagination of the people.
