What are the chances I can get 10 commissions in the next 2 week to help pay bills? (multiple assignments got delayed by weeks, so while I need to get some new shoots lined up, getting commissions also help or buying prints of my work) Photo prints: lucidillusions.darkroom.com or art prints.

The excuse of “unwarranted interference in internal matters” doesn’t get old for this govt, does it?

This seems to me a terrific article--moving, well made, and informative. The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest movement is modeling how to respond to the steady erosion of democracy.

Demonstrators intercepted and detained as authorities crack down on 'cockroach' movement rally in central New Delhi https://aje.news/8n6qlw

Policewomen try to stop a detained protester escaping from a bus during a protest by the Cockroach Janta Party seeking the resignation of India's Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, near the protest site in New Delhi, India. [Adnan Abidi/Reuters]Police detained more than 2,000 people, including opposition politicians, journalists and lawyers. [AP Photo]Protesters were demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation over a revision of the voters’ list they say disproportionately benefits the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). [Vipin/AP Photo]Protesters accuse the BJP of using the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voters’ list to sway results, and opposition parties say the revisions affected several recent state elections the party won, casting a shadow over polls in the world’s largest democracy.

I am worried about the safety of the protesters. Every single one of us needs to take to the streets and raise our voices against the government.

That's how we can stand up to the fascist government.

In India, following a Supreme Court order directing police not to detain journalists and lawyers, Delhi Police continued to crack down upon young protesters across the capital today. Several protesters have alleged police brutality, including…

Re(ugh)skeeting because I've been thinking about this a lot. About where I get my news from, and what's excluded from my minimal attempts to keep up with the news. I check on social media, on american Late Night talk shows, and skimming the Guardian because a friend That One Time said it's great.

Just a reminder that assaults on press freedom have skyrocketed in the last decade in the world largest (zombie) democracy

I LOVE Indian journalists. They are the realest. Laughing, talking shit, filming all while at least 5 male cops shove a woman bodily into a bus. FEARLESS. And not self important. They know they aren’t valued. Best education of my life was as a city beat reporter there in my 20s.

One thing that strikes you with the concurrent protests in India & France is the elaborate deployment of state machinery (police/military/army personnel). Whilst France uses lethal weapons, Indian police controls w/ batons. Oh and Pakistani Gen Z sending love to their Indian friends is everything.

7000 detained in New Delhi. The demoncracy defends itself.
