What to talk to a girl about - 5 easy conversation topics

“What is being talked a lot here in TN is, ‘let us keep aside caste, let us not debate casteism. Let us come together as Tamils.’ But this will never happen. ‘Let's not debate caste, but let's come together as the proletariat, as the working class.’ This too will never happen,” says VCK president Thol Thirumavalavan, in the first episode of Puram, the podcast on The News Minute. 

“The larger understanding or interpretation of Tamil nationalism has been limited to language and race/ethnicity. "My language, my people," has been pushed to the front for a brand of emotional politics. But, Vidudhalai Chiruthaikal – VCK – disagrees with this, sees this differently. Affinity to Tamil, or racial/ethnic affinity alone will not define Tamil nationalism, will not be useful to the movement,” Thirumavalavan says.

“Casteism and caste-society is the obstacle to all growth. Which is why, for the VCK there is no Tamil nationalism without uprooting Hindutva,” Thirumavalavan says.

Politicians are often in the business of politics because they believe in something; they have a vision of society. Even the most hated and reviled ones do. Else, why would anyone choose it as a profession in the first place? It has a low probability of success, and an even lower probability of sustaining that success; it’s also an extraordinarily difficult job that most of us will fail at. If one were a rational human, one would choose to work a stable job and not become a politician. Which is what most of us do.

That is why, Puram, a series of podcasts, will be a conversation with politicians and policy makers on their vision for society and on their motivation to become a politician. A conversation that hopes to bring out their raison d’etre which is increasingly a vanishing part of the political discourse. Politics isn’t about overpowering the news waves with absurd infomercials disguised as news; this podcast will attempt to not be that, and yet remain engaging and thoughtful.
