Barkha Dhar’s Blog: A Must-Read

26 July 2010 4 Comments

In traveling the blogging trail, there are times when we come across a blog that is so profound in it messages and is written with such depth of passion, that I want to share it so that many, many more will visit and enjoy. It is fine dining for the mind. Such is the case with
Barkha Dhar’s Blogs On Social Issues
This writer has a depth of passion for social activism on women’s issues that is unsurpassed. Her latest entry is “Women’s Rights Should Not Be Ostracized.” The following is a brief excerpt from that post:

“So if you are a man and you see a women being expelled of her rights……

Stand up against violence. You shall be more of a man in doing so
Care for other women as you would care for your own
Learn to respect femininity. It may not seem as powerful as masculinity but without it your machismo certainly is incomplete
Be an advocate to stop ostracism against women. Talk to peers, family and friends or whoever you think is the smallest dust particle that causes such offense.
Everybody says that it’s a man’s world. Is it or isn’t it? is not the question. The real quest is to make this world a better place for everyone to live including every woman you meet in your lifetime, irrespective of her role or abilities.

If you are the King, she is the Queen, so treat her like one. You will be a torch bearer for others”

She also uses the most powerful videos in furthering her message. In her post entitled “Peace of Mind,” she has used this video to emphasize her message. It will stay with you for a long time.

Please visit this amazing site. Give Barkha Dhar your support and let us all be thankful that good people like this are treasures in our blogosphere.

Hey Cher,
Just checked your message and here I am at your site reading this post…I am out of words at this moment to express my gratitude to you and fellow bloggers who have shown support for this post. My activism would’t have much depth if there weren’t people like you to appreciate it and understand the significance given the way our society treats ‘us’ women. Thank you thank you thank you for spreading the word out because we can only make a change together, fight it out together and not alone. Please let me know if I could be of some help to you in this joint mission.
Thank you once again for such a wonderful post that is a living illustration of how a woman has the magnanimity and wisdom to support other women(you practically proved my point Cher by being one such great woman). I honor and regard your action and effort.
My Best to you
Barkha Dhar
