𝑳𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒅 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒔 - Ten-Headed Kinsman by R. Talitha Samuel

"⁠A journey through time, and gender- exploring Dalit womanhood and Dravidian masculinity through an anti-caste and trans lens. Bounded and centred by an all-Dalit & Tamil Greek chorus consisting of photographer Jaisingh Nageshwaran, scholar Dr. Roja Singh, community oragniser Grace Banu and wise young woman Ritu Elizabeth Samuel, soundtracked by rapper nasbandi - and me."

R.Talitha Samuel is a cultural producer based in New Delhi. Featuring only guest experts from caste-oppressed communities, Clear Blue Skies S1: Experiencing Ambedkar (2021-23) was a radical political theory podcast that Samuel hosted & edited. It built on the final year seminar Samuel developed & led, which was the first university-level course on anti-caste thought across Turtle Island. Currently, the larger project of Clear Bue Skies Productions is expanding into mixed media collaging, experimental research-based narrative soundscapes & sonic ethnography.
