I would like to warn freelancers before sending their pitches, photo essays, and articles to Frontline. The organisation has not cleared my payment for an article published on June 15. The editor asked for account details before ghosting me completely. No use of reminders

International journalists: If you need to speak to women and girls in Afghanistan, there’s many I can connect you with, many who were banned from classes today. These are the voices the world needs to hear. DM me if you need contacts. Thanks.

If this image doesn’t break you, I don’t know what will. Despite Taliban banning female university education, this young woman stood outside Kabul University today, hoping that they may still let her in. The Taliban barbwired the main gate & only allowed male students to enter.

When you hear the word 'farmer' what comes to your mind? A man in a dhoti? Or riding a tractor? Women do so much more in agriculture. Beyond transplanting rice. This one is for Adaikalaselvi & other women who put food -& spices- on our plates #FarmersDay ruralindiaonline.org/en/articles/in…

Why was this known communal hatemonger allowed to make inflammatory comments in a public place DGP KARNATAKA Araga Jnanendra Basavaraj S Bommai ? Is this the tone you want to set for the upcoming polls in the State? This is an open call to violence against a whole community.

Might be too controversial: we need more Contemporary stories set outside USA/Europe. We need to support more local authors who can come up with stories in setting that is familiar to them and not just west-centered settings

Fighting patriarchy’s wars must not be our price of admission into full humanity. Armed forces around the world are filled with poor & working class people, whether conscripted, drafted or enlisted, who are trained to fight ā€œin returnā€ for education, health insurance, employment.

We can proudly say this story by tapasya tofuss laid a spike strip in Centre's plan to cut access to free nutritious food in anganwadis for millions of children by making Aadhaar a must. The gov't made a U-turn following the outcry generated by our report. reporters-collective.in/projects/centr…
