Blessed to share my second single - ‘Remember Begum Rokheya’ .
It’s a song that is meant to draw attention to Begum Rokheya Sakhawat Hossain, a bengali feminist writer who penned some incredible books over a 100 years ago.
She was also an educator and political activist who fought for women’s rights.
One of the things I was trying to do, while researching indofuturist ideas, was highlighting the work that has come before us. And I believe Begum Rokheya is one such voice, that deserves A LOT more recognition. So here you go.
If you’re interested in finding out more about her, a good place to start is with her book Sultana’s Dream, which is a feminist science fiction novella.
