Reseña del libro "Flaming Forest, Wounded Valley Stories from Bastar and Kashmir (en Inglés)"
DescriptionWhat happened when a siege was laid in Kashmir? Coils of razor wire wereunrolled, creating martial units to be manned by security forces, and mobilephones and the internet were cut off. How did communities withstand themonths and months of shutdown? What happened when a beautiful andvast meadow where pastoral communities have taken their animals to grazefor centuries, was leased out as an artillery firing ground? People lost theirlimbs, even their lives and watched in horror as a flock of sheep got blownup. Children cowered in classrooms as guns boomed and shells exploded in afiring exercise. How did people reclaim this ground?How were Adivasis impacted when they were forced to leave the forest andordered by the Chhattisgarh government to live in makeshift camps by theroadside or else be outlawed? Villages emptied out and there was massivedisplacement with the Salwa Judum unleashing unimaginable terror and violenceon those who resisted. Sarkeguda was one such village but its inhabitants cameback later to begin life afresh. How did the villagers react when seventeen oftheir people were killed one night in a field, under the open skies?How did they successfully contest the official story of it being a gunfight againstMaoists? By spirited protests and confidently affirming their truth in court.Through stories of resilience, the book celebrates the idea that heroic deedsare performed by ordinary people.
