Subject: a song of defiance against rape
Dear All,
Please listen to this song of defiance and protest against the horrible rape in 2012.
Some colleagues have composed a song of defiance against misogyny that we were horrified to know prevails in the subcontinent recently when a young girl was raped by six men in Delhi. The song is in Punjabi, with Hindi-Urdu commentary. Please circulate it as widely as possible.
Best regards,
Ishtiaq
