Indrani Ganguli is that rare personality; an interpreter of languages, a salon-keeper of resolute character and a friend to many. She’s as adept at staring down recalcitrant witnesses in court while taking down their depositions as she is compassionate with those who clearly are devastated at being there at all….Continue reading→

In Chronological Order
Racism
Racism exists. Systemic racism exists. Personal racism exists. I’ve been late with this post. The main reason is work intruded. Also, two reasons, I’m called the SloMan. The third, I have three reasons, is the real one. There is just so much I want to say. In this post, I suspect, I…Continue reading→
General Update
