Mantra of the Oppressed

a handbook of creative resistance

This handbook of creative resistance examines India’s descent into autocracy and offers a hopeful call for tolerance, and mutual respect.

Mujeeb Jaihoon’s Mantra of the Oppressed is an equally creative and intellectual enquiry that discusses and evaluates India’s arrest into autocracy. When activists are jailed and the homes of the oppressed are bulldozed, this handbook of creative resistance colourfully criticises the new majoritarian influence and its impact on oppressed Indian minority communities. Through incredible imagery and imagination, this remarkable collection of poems, essays, and quotes beckons its readers to open both their hearts and minds to an empathetic examination of India’s current state of political affairs. While Jaihoon decries the descent of India’s powerful pluralistic tradition into a land without dissent, he also decorates a dialogue based on hope, tolerance and mutual respect.
