LITERATURE

Feroz Rather's urgent lyric essay, Why I Write explores exile, melancholy, violence, Kashmir, America and the act of writing itself.  

 

 

OPINION

In Compromising Iranian Cinema, Flavio Rizzo offers a fresh context for Oscar-winner, A Separation by cutting through the award frenzy and gushing critical praise. 

  

 

OPINION

In The Oppressive Silencing, Juliane Okot Bitek underscores the importance of grassroots activism around Joseph Kony, the LRA and Uganda's children before the KONY2012 saga.
