Wednesday 23 October, 6.30-9pm

‘The Advocate’ documentary film on civil liberties, social movements and state in Andhra Pradesh, India

The documentary film ‘The Advocate’ focuses on the life and work of late G. Kannabiran, India’s foremost lawyer and champion of civil liberties. The film highlights state repression including extra-judicial killings, political prisoners and violations of civil liberties of the Maoist movement that forms the context for his work in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India. It highlights the context to the resistance and repression which, in most cases, lie in socio-economic deprivations and social polarisations, and opens up spaces for debate on the state of civil liberties in India, seen as the most populous democracy in the world, and more widely, the assumptions about human rights, civil liberties, economic polarisation and socio-economic deprivations more generally in other Third World countries. Chaired by Prof Penny Green, International State Crime Initiative, Kings College London. Panelists include: Dr Radha D’Souza, University of Westminster, School of Law; Saleh Mamon, Campaign Against Criminalising Communities (CAMPACC); John Hutnyk, Professor of Cultural Studies, Centre for Cultural Studies at Goldsmiths University of London.
