For a long time, I have wanted to get more people involved in the struggle for justice for Bangladesh's Hindus; using media different from my usual non-fiction books and articles. Earlier this year, I was awarded a residency in Assam in Northeast India. It gave me a chance to know and work with some fantastic students and educators, both Hindu and Muslim. We engaged in passionate discussions, important learning activities, and socialization. I am a better person for it. The group has put together a web site and published a comic I put together with my daughter, comic artist Sarah Benkin, based on actual events I experienced. It has sparked a good deal of interest already. You can see the comic by clicking the “Originally published July ….” line. Thank you, SindhuNews.
