Uncuff India is going strong- the sixth episode is now live!


In this episode, we unpack experiences of reporting acts of State violence against people of marginalised religious communities, especially by people of these communities. We also revisit the idea of State violence and reconstruct its scope to include the lived experiences of people who find themselves on religious margins and focus on the different agents that have led to normalisation of State violence. It also delves into the personal impact of reporting incidents of State violence and what helps sustain the fight to hold the State accountable. For this episode, we have the effervescent Fatima Khan join us. Fatima Khan is a senior correspondent at The Quint where she covers national politics, hate crimes and social justice. She is a recipient of the International Press Institute award for Covid reporting, a UNFPA Laadli award for gender reporting and the Human Rights Religious Freedom Journalism Awards, 2023 for her video series on the imapct of the Hijab ban in Karnataka.
