MORE READING AND VIEWING ON THE GREAT #FarmersProtests INDIA:


From the Stanford South Asian Society, this talk disseminates why these great Protests are happening in India – and why the Farmers of India are fighting to protect themselves, their lands, and their very livelihood from the onslaught of corporatocracy; fighting on behalf of not just the right to operate, in sovereignty, with dignity, in a free, fair and just mandi (market) system, but also, in fact, for our collective future.

India at a turning point | The Indian Farm Bills to force farmers to “get big or get out”?


“We’ve reached a point, a few years ago, for the first time in human history, more people live in cities, than in the countryside. So now we have more consumers of food than those growing it. We’ve seen the wars of the past fought over resources like oil, but now they will be over food and water. Food security is a massive issue for every government, and the world’s super rich are creating alliances to capitalise their grip on the world’s food supply. During lockdown, around the world, the super rich have had enormous gains in their wealth, whereas the rest of the population have struggled.”

FILM: ”The Dispossessed is an impressionist journey that sheds light on the daily strife of the world’s hungry farming class. In this era of industrialized agriculture, across the globe, people who produce food are paid less than almost any other profession. Part cinema-vérité, part essay, our film examines the mechanisms by which farmers are falling into a somber cycle of despair, debt and dispossession.

Shot in India, Democratic Republic of Congo, Malawi, Switzerland, Brazil and Canada, The Dispossessed is carried by stunning cinematography and fascinating interviews and follows the peasantry’s migration from their farmlands to the dystopian megapolis’ construction lands.
