Well, this has been a very long time coming. I am so proud of the book I have written, and that @emsilk10 has editorially shaped. Forthcoming from @Harvard_Press in January 2025, my first monograph THE DISINHERITED: THE POLITICS OF CHRISTIAN CONVERSION IN COLONIAL INDIA!

Very excited to announce that Mou Banerjee’s powerful, necessary, and moving book - THE DISINHERITED: THE POLITICS OF CHRISTIAN CONVERSION IN COLONIAL INDIA - is forthcoming in January 2025! @moubanerjee28 @Harvard_Press #coverreveal

I wrote about state-backed culture in Russia and the creative, brave artists (mostly women) who are still trying, despite everything, to envision a country where the future is not the past

“Ahead of a presidential election expected to extend his tenure by six more years, Mr. Putin appears politically impregnable,” writes @JoyNeumeyer “Yet try all he might, he can’t control culture.” Read: nyti.ms/43gZ93h
