VIdeo Testimonials in support of the BK-12

June was the second anniversary of the arrests of the first five activists in the Bhima Koregaon Case. It is essential to keep the systematic targeting and harrasment of activists by the government alive in public discourse. To help in this effort the Ambedkar-King Study Circle and India Civil watch have collected over 120 video messages in support of the activists. Here are some of the videos:

Bishop Michael Curry’s statement on Hathras.

Compassionately strong statement from Bishop Michael Curry, the First African American Presiding Bishop of the over 500 year old Episcopal Church. Pointing to the connections between Dalits and the African American communities in the USA, Bishop Curry calls for concerted action towards justice for all as he condemns the atrocities against women, and Dalits in India.

“I realize the powerful parallels between Dalit struggle (and African Americans') for equal dignity and equal rights, and justice under the law, their work to create a humane and just society.”

“Much of the Dalit struggle is similar to our work here as African Americans and people of color in the United States ... God did not make us to be under anybody’s boot. We are created equal.”

We, the undersigned, are shocked at the action of the Uttar Pradesh police under Yogi Adityanath in filing criminal charges against The Wire and against one of its founding editors, Siddharth Varadarajan. This attack on media freedom, especially during the Covid-19 crises, endangers not just free speech, but the public’s right to information.

UPDATE: Despite an application in the Supreme Court of India for the postponement of the arrest of human rights activists Anand Teltumbde and Gautam Navlakha, on grounds that incarceration during the Coronavirus crisis is a virtual death sentence, especially given their age and state of health, the Supreme Court of India refuses the request and demands “surrender” by April 14.
