The Battles for Justice: No Country for Women

"The Battles for Justice" is an illustrated dispatch from India on the women's struggle for justice from the times of the epic Mahabharata to the rise of a Hindu government and god-men in India. It's a personal and complicated reaction to the rare conviction of a god-man, who exploited women with impunity for more than fifteen years, and had armed goons, policemen and politicians in his pocket. His conviction resulted in the death of 38 people. In these 14 black and white pages, "The Battles for Justice" boils down the nation's complex feelings about what the judgment and the subsequent unrest and killings mean for the women's struggle for justice.
