बीते कुछ समय से शेष भारत के लोगों के लिए कश्मीर राष्ट्रवाद के ‘उत्प्रेरक’ के तौर पर काम आने लगा है। ‘दूध माँगोगे तो खीर देंगे, कश्मीर माँगोगे तो चीर देंगे’ जैसे फ़िल्मी डायलॉग के ज़रिए जम्मू-कश्मीर को भारत और पाकिस्तान के भूगोल, इतिहास और संस्कृति-सभ्यता की बाइनरी में रखते हुए ‘पाने-खोने’ के विमर्शों में उलझाकर रख दिया गया है। इन सबके बीच कश्मीरियत भी है, जिस पर बात कम होती है। जम्मू-कश्मीर के लोग हैं, उनके मानवाधिकार, उनके नागरिक अधिकार हैं, तमाम गंभीर, मौखिक और कथित क़ानूनी आरोप झेलते घाटी के युवा हैं, जो अपना भविष्य अंधकार में पाते हैं।

In On Xi Jinping, former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd provides an authoritative account of the ideological worldview driving Chinese behaviour both domestically and on the world stage—that of President Xi Jinping, who now holds near-total control over the Chinese Communist Party and is now, in effect, president-for-life.

Hormel - a man who grew up feeling different not only because his family owned the Hormel “empire” and lived in a 26 bedroom house in a small Midwest town, but because he was gay at a time when homosexuality was not discussed or accepted.
