Former revolutionary Gita Ramaswamy on the Naxals & why she chose peace over guns

Fights for justice can run two paths. One through violence. The other through peace.

This is the extraordinary story of a woman who tried both.

GITA RAMASWAMY— Brahmin, woman, idealist, activist, former Naxal — looks back on her big fights, intense learnings, & incredible life story as she challenged every power structure that tried to keep her down.

From going underground as a revolutionary, to having her brains electrocuted by her family, to moving away from an ideology of violence, to seeking radical transformation through peace.

Her piercing memoir _Land. Caste. Guns. Woman _ is a looking glass for us all and has earned admiration from the Chief Justice of India, political leaders, actors, activists, & grass root workers.

It challenges every complacency we live with.
