Badruddin Umarer Jibon o Kaj is an excellent collection of essays, articles and recollections about Umar written by many renowned national and international scholars.

What the 'Woke' Left and the Alt-Right Share

Western political correctness (“wokeness”) has displaced class struggle, producing a liberal elite that claims to protect threatened racial and sexual minorities in order to divert attention from its members’ own economic and political power. At the same time, this lie allows alt-right populists to present themselves as defenders of “real” people against corporate and “deep state” elites, even though they, too, occupy positions at the commanding heights of economic and political power.

BYLINE / If Left doesn't do God, it should try Godfather

Parties, like individuals, can become bed-ridden for many reasons; many have died an early death because of irrelevance. When an obituary of the Indian Left is written, it will be said that it died of complacency. It was not homicide, really. It was suicide.
