Mohsin Hamid is one of my favorite writers. EXIT WEST is one of the best novels I've ever read. I recently finished his new novel THE LAST WHITE MAN and I have such admiration for how inventive and imaginative a writer he is. All of his books are so different, and so satisfying.

Indian police join with right-wing mobs to savagely beat non-violent protestors.
Sound familiar? Remember MLK’s words: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
Please help spread the word. #FarmersProtest

There are going to be a lot of different narratives in the comings days, weeks, and years about this election, but what I know for sure is that things would look very different (much worse) if it wasn't for those who've committed their entire lives to organizing around justice.
