An Insignificant Man, GFT, 19 September, 2017
Fascinating political documentary chronicling the rise of “the Bernie Sanders of India.” Arvind Kejriwal vowed to stand up for Delhi’s impoverished communities by challenging corruption. As his grassroots movement turned into a mighty political force, the arrests, beatings and threats increased. An Insignificant Man (itself facing censorship in India) provides a vital eyewitness account of a seminal transformation in the world’s largest democracy.
Followed by a conversation on how grassroots movements are changing the face of politics, with guests including Robin McAlpine (Common Weal) and Indra Adnan (The Alternative UK).
