Chaitime with Kavita Krishnan - Sept. 29, 2013

In today’s ChaiTime we talk to Kavita Krishnan. Kavita Krishnan is Secretary of the All India Progressive Women’s Association (AIPWA), a women’s group that is especially active among women workers, agricultural laborers, and other sections of poor laboring women in rural and urban India. The AIPWA has a record of resistance against feudal violence on women and state repression against women. Kavita has also been a student activist, helping to organize women students on many campuses to demand mechanisms against sexual harassment. Kavita Krishnan was in UC Berkeley to give the third "Maharaj Kaul Memorial Lecture," a lecture series on the theme of social justice. This lecture series has been established in the memory of Maharaj Kaul (1940 - 2009), a UC Berkeley alum, tireless campaigner against injustice and for peace, the founder of groups such as India Relief, Education Fund, and Coalition against Communalism, as well as a long-time supporter of CSAS’s mission and activities. In this conversation Kavita shares problems faced by women in India as well as her inspiring ideas and thoughts to address them.
