Friends,
Happy New Year.
As you might be observing, the US is full of protests these days.
Our November meeting of South Asian Poets of New England
chose the topic "Protest". We included an Afghan woman protest
song and we had the songs from the Indian protests. In all,
we had Hindi, English, Punjabi, Kannada, Bengali, Odia, Urdu,
Pashto, and Sanskrit poetry. I recited from the Atharvaveda Kanda V,
Sukta 7 and translated.
Best regards,
Bijoy Misra
