Founder of Kotha, U opens up on the larger social issues faced by the girls in Bangla Surf Girls. "Even when all of these barriers existed, the agency of these girls in how they faced these was really highlighted... Without romanticising resilience."

WE DID IT: with a landslide margin of 1785–912, we are officially the MITGSU-UE!!! What started 4 years ago with a dozen students in an MIT classroom discussing the needs of graduate workers has culminated in this historic victory for student-workers at MIT. Now, we celebrate!
