CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@gopal @SRDas that's it! Thank you so much!

(No wonder I was having trouble finding it, I was looking in the wrong part of the country.)

@SRDas that would make sense! I'll dig into it tomorrow. Thank you.

"A man is journeying towards the sun and takes a photograph at each step. How different would be the first photograph from the second and still more from the third or the last, when he reaches the real sun! But all these, though differing so widely from each other, are true, only they are made to appear different by the changing conditions of time and space."

- Swami Vivekananda

"The main reason why I have never been able to raise my head against slavery is that whenever a sister has tried to raise her head, her head has been crushed by a blow in the form of a weapon in the name of religion or the words of the scriptures. What we did not accept easily at first, we later considered as the command of religion and made it a matter of honor."

Rokeya Rachanabali, Bangla Academy, page 610

So I still haven't found the source. But the good news is this has led me to spend the morning digging through Bengali liberation literature. And I do have a few bangers to share.

I need help on sourcing! An important Indian activist (Bengali, I believe) has a quote that goes something like:

"I will support the Brahmin against the colonist, I will support the worker against the Brahmin, I will support the beaten wife against the worker, I will support the abused child against the mother."

Its a terribly important quote, speaking about where we need to direct our efforts to not become complicit. But I cannot recall the correct quote, nor the source.

Help!?
