Abhijit Naskar
“Greeks did not invent philosophy, philosophy had existed across Latin America, Africa, Arabia, India and China, thousands of years earlier, not as some elitist discipline, but as everyday way of life, later the europeans contributed their puny drop in the ocean, but of course, the myth of europe as the origin of philosophy goes deceptively well with the whitewashed history of earth. Enlightenment and civilization did not originate in europe, they were born of the lands colonially categorized as uncivilized.”
Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

Abhijit Naskar
“Colonialism was a mass extinction event, yet no textbook has the spine to bear the burden.”
Abhijit Naskar, Kral Fakir: When Calls The Kainat
