Doctors Kavita Algu and Ben Thomson, both very active in the Palestinian solidarity movement, talk about the backlash they received at their separate workplaces - clear cases of anti-Palestinian racism (APR) in our public hospitals. Similar cases, met with very different means of resistance.“There's multiple paths of resistance...they'll all serve different goals, and push in different ways. We find the ones right for us depending on our situation. And they're all important.”Dr. Kavita Algu a physician, activist and Ph.D candidate, was working in palliative care at Mount Sinai Hospital (Toronto) in the Fall of 2023, while the genocide in Gaza was intensifying. Already a longtime advocate for various issues, she did what any decent human being should have - and was shocked at the response from her fellow doctors.She talks about seeing her boss' name at the bottom of a letter signed by 550 Zionists, calling her and any other doctor advocating for Palestine antisemitic. how she was pushed out of her job, and what it was like finally being able to go public and expose the anti-Palestinian racism that singled out her work.Her story brings up discussions around the "entitlement of comfort" and the prioritization of declared feelings over the right to speak against actual violence.Dr. Ben Thomson, of Eyewitness Gaza has been visiting Gaza for over 10 years, been extremely active in the movement - but how his workplace responded to this work also changed after 2023. All of a sudden "being passionate became a liability", and his protected political views were being used against him.This happened to him twice! He was first suspended, then reinstated, by McKenzie Health - which caused him to file a lawsuit that is slowly working its way through the courts. Although critical for future cases, this method has been resource consuming and taxing in other ways."There needs to be a cost for organizations who behave badly. Whether its shaming them publicly...or causing them to have significant liabilities with cost, or whether its changing the law."When Ben lost a job opportunity in B.C. for the same reasons, he chose a different route to find 'justice' and filed a human rights complaint against . This process has been more accessible, and public.Ben contrasts his experiences in other ways, and together with Kavita, provides lots of lessons for other workers who are most certainly facing something similar.Also discussed: IHRI definition, Bill C9, the Palestine exception, zionismCall to Action: Donate to the Toronto Community Justice FundRelated Episodes: United Against Genocide: Name it, Stop it, Sanction It (June 2025) Alex Neve, Dr. Dorotea Gucciardo, and Dr. Ben Thompson on their work to pressure Canadian politicians to end Canada's complicity in the genocide Holding Institutions Accountable (Oct 2025) Activist and lawyer Dimitri Lascaris on students' $10 million lawsuit against the Toronto Metropolitan University for anti-Palestinian racism.More Resources: Toronto Doctor Resigns From Mount Sinai (Toronto Star)Ontario doctor suspended, his address published after pro-Palestinian social media posts (CBC)Get even MORE (free) content on our SUBSTACK!All of our content is free - made possible by the generous sponsorships of our Patrons.

Our GuestKavita Ezekiel Mendonca is a poet, teacher and the daughter of Nissim Ezekiel, widely regarded as the father of modern Indian poetry in English. Kavita means ‘Poem' in Sanskrit. Born in Bombay into a Bene Israel family, Kavita grew up in multilingual family, encouraged to respect the many faiths in her community, and where her father made a deliberate choice not to follow the wave of Bene Israel emigration to Israel. His reason: if everyone goes, who stays and does something for this country? That question runs through this whole conversation.Kavita now lives in Calgary, where she writes and teaches. Her poetry draws on her Bene Israel heritage, her multilingual childhood, and the kitchens, synagogues and village visits that shaped her sense of who she is. In this episode, she reads her poem Give Me Oil in My Lamp, which quietly captures what Jewish identity can look like when it has nothing to prove.Key TopicsGrowing up Bene Israel in Bombay: religion, community and the world outside the doorNissim Ezekiel and his choice to stay in IndiaPoetry as inheritance and practiceYour GuideNissim Ezekiel (1924-2004): Indian poet widely regarded as the father of modern Indian poetry in English. Born in Bombay into a Bene Israel family, he published his first collection A Time to Change in 1952 and went on to define a new idiom for Indian writing: rooted in the everyday, sceptical of abstraction, deeply Indian and specifically Jewish at the same time.Bene Israel: One of the oldest Jewish communities in India, traditionally believed to have arrived on the Konkan coast of Maharashtra over two thousand years ago, possibly following a shipwreck. The community developed distinct traditions, including Marathi as a communal language and the malida ceremony. Aliyah: Hebrew for ascent, and a word used for immigration to Israel. Following the Partition of India, and through the 1950s, a significant number of Bene Israel families made aliyah, reducing the Mumbai community considerably.Konkan: The coastal strip of western India running through Maharashtra. The traditional homeland of the Bene Israel community and the setting of the shipwreck legend that forms part of Bene Israel origin stories. The village of Alibag, which features in Kavita's poem, sits near this coast.Want to Learn More?If this conversation connected with you, these episodes are close neighbours:A Jalebi and Challah Sandwich (Season 1, Episode 2): Penny interviews Eylan about his own Bene Israel and Ashkenazi heritage.

In this episode of the B2B Marketing Podcast, Kavita Singh sat down with Adam Bertelsen, AI Workforce Transformation Lead, Baringa to unpack how agentic AI is reshaping the way work gets done and what it really means for B2B marketers. Adam shares cross-industry lessons from sectors like law, financial services, media, and government, revealing the patterns in which tasks AI absorbs first and why creative judgment, brand instinct, and relationship-building still sit firmly in the human camp. Together, they explore the five “human-native” capabilities that matter more as AI matures: translation and judgment, accountability and trust, embodied presence, taste and provenance, and relationship-building. Adam and Kavita also dig into why so many organizations are failing to see real productivity gains from AI, how to move from experiments to strategic value, and why the smartest leaders are treating AI as an operating model shift rather than a tool rollout. If you're under pressure to prove ROI from AI without sacrificing distinctiveness, this episode is a must-listen. In addition, B2B Ignite will be taking place on 1 July in London.

Today, we're diving into a part of the climate transition that doesn't get nearly as much attention as solar panels, electric vehicles, or AI: the materials, minerals, and manufacturing systems that make modern civilization possible. Steel alone accounts for roughly 7–8% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and the energy transition is driving unprecedented demand for critical minerals, advanced materials, and domestic manufacturing capacity. These sectors offer incredible investment opportunities, and that's the focus of my guest, Kavita Patel. Kavita is a portfolio manager for venture investment for MUUS & Company (MUUS), the family office of TIGER 21 Founder and Chairman, Michael Sonnenfeldt, and his family.We discuss opportunities ranging from critical mineral recycling to next-generation building materials, what she's learned investing through the ups and downs of climate tech, and why she believes some of the most compelling opportunities today may be hiding in sectors many investors overlook.We also explore where climate capital is flowing, where it may be underinvesting, and how investors can think rigorously about both financial returns and real-world climate impact.I learned a lot from this conversation, and I think you will too.

न ज्यादा उदार, न ज्यादा सावधानीपूर्ण।En: He learned that balance is necessary in life—neither too liberal nor too cautious.Hi: लाजपत नगर लौटते समय, वे सभी एक नए दृष्टिकोण और रिश्तों में गहराई के साथ लौट रहे थे।En: As they returned to Lajpat Nagar, they all came back with a new perspective and depth in relationships.Hi: और इसी तरह, यात्रा ने उन्हें न केवल भूगोल में, बल्कि दिलों में भी एक नई दिशा दिखा दी।En: And in this way, the journey showed them a new direction not just in geography, but in their hearts as well.

This month on Trek Tuesday, Tony chats with celebrated Star Trek artist Kavita Maharaj, whose work has become instantly recognizable across the fandom for its emotional precision, striking detail, and uncanny ability to capture the essence of beloved Trek characters. For many fans, Kavita's portraits feel like stepping into a moment of truth — a look, a gesture, a spark of humanity that defines who these characters are. And it all began with one figure who changed her life as an artist:

In Jazz Age New York, a shocking murder shatters the privileged life of the city's most elite family in a propulsive mystery-thriller debut from author K.M. Colley that spans from Harlem to Long Island's Gold Coast and high society's glittering world of deadly secrets.In the glittering world of 1920s New York, the seven Ridley heirs seem to have it all: wealth, status, and protection as the city's most powerful family. But when notorious gossip columnist Dale Caimen is found dead during their family's renowned summer soiree, their carefully constructed world begins to crack.Behind the champagne and jazz, each adopted Ridley sibling harbors secrets that could destroy them. There's Amelia, the responsible eldest trying to hold it all together; Adesua, whose artistic ambitions in the Harlem Renaissance threaten her family's expectations; and wild child Kavita, whose dangerous nights in speakeasies may have finally caught up with her.As the murder investigation intensifies, long-buried tensions surface and family loyalties unravel. Someone knows the truth about the Ridleys—and they're willing to kill to expose it. In a world where appearance is everything and power comes at a deadly price, the siblings must decide what matters more: protecting the family name or each other.goto Amazon or where ever books are sold!

I want to apologize to you."Hi: कविता की मुट्ठी में गुलाल था, लेकिन उसकी आंखों में पुरानी शिकायतों का रंग उड़ेल रहा था।En: Kavita held gulal in her fist, but her eyes poured out the color of old grievances.Hi: "तुम्हारे शब्द कितने भी खूबसूरत हों, राजीव, मैं उन्हें मान नहीं सकती," उसने प्रतिक्रिया दी।En: "No matter how beautiful your words are, Rajeev, I cannot believe them," she responded.Hi: "तुमने कभी हमारा दर्द महसूस किया ही नहीं।"En: "You never felt our pain."Hi: उसके शब्दों की तलवार ने हवा की खुशबू को एक पल में बदल दिया।En: Her words slashed through the fragrant air in an instant.Hi: एक गर्मागरम बहस छिड़ गई।En: A heated argument erupted.Hi: हर वह बात सामने आई, जिसे वे पिछले कई वर्षों से अपने दिल में छिपाए बैठे थे।En: Every matter that they had been hiding in their hearts for many years came forth.Hi: "हम सभी एक परिवार हैं।En: Amidst this cloud of conflict, Nisha finally spoke, "We are all family.Hi: क्या हम पुरानी बातों को पीछे नहीं छोड़ सकते और इस त्योहार के रंग में भिग नहीं सकते?"En: Can't we leave the past behind and immerse ourselves in the colors of this festival?"Hi: मरीन ड्राइव की चमक रात के अंधेरे में खोने लगी।En: The brilliance of Marine Drive began to fade into the night.Hi: राजीव ने गहरी सांस ली, "कविता, मैंने सच में गलती की।En: Rajeev took a deep breath, "Kavita, I truly made a mistake.Hi: मैं इसे सुधारना चाहता हूँ।"En: I want to make things right."Hi: कविता की आंखों में नमी थी।En: There was moisture in Kavita's eyes.Hi: उस नमी में एक संधि थी, पुरानी शिकायतों को पीछे छोड़ने की।En: In that moisture was a truce, a readiness to leave old grievances behind.Hi: "चलो, इस वर्ष होली के रंग नई शुरुआत का प्रतीक बनते हैं," उसने राजीव की ओर बढ़ते कहा।En: "Let's make this year's Holi colors a symbol of new beginnings," she said, stepping towards Rajeev.Hi: हाथों में रंग और दिलों में सुलह का वादा लेकर, तीनों समुद्र किनारे होली मनाने लगे।En: With colors in their hands and a promise of reconciliation in their hearts, the three of them began celebrating Holi by the seaside.Hi: उन्होंने रंगों की जंग जीत ली थी, और मरीन ड्राइव ने उनके बिखरे रंगों और नई उम्मीद की गवाही दी।En: They had won the battle of colors, and Marine Drive bore witness to their scattered colors and new hope.

जरूरी था बस उसी की ओर ध्यान देना।En: This beautiful spring showed him new happiness in life - all it required was paying attention to it.

In this powerful episode of Philanthropy in Phocus, Tommy D, the Nonprofit Sector Connector, sits down with Kavita Mehra, Executive Director of Sakhi for South Asian Survivors of Gender-Based Violence, for an honest, vulnerable, and inspiring conversation about what it means to build a life of service and stand with survivors. From her working-class Jersey roots and 100-hour weeks in her mother's Hallmark store, to frontline overnight shelter work, to being fired from a fundraising role and coming back stronger, Kavita shares how every step of her journey shaped the leader she is today.Kavita opens up about being a survivor herself, the loneliness of navigating class and identity as an Indian American woman, and how those lived experiences inform her leadership at Sakhi. She and Tommy dig into the realities of direct service vs. development, the importance of professionalizing the nonprofit sector, and why fundraising is really about storytelling, connection, and aligning passion with resources. Along the way, they talk about the Imagine Awards, sector stress, and why small groups of committed people truly can change the world.You'll also hear how Sakhi has grown from a small organization with a modest budget into a $7M+ movement hub with a 50-person team, offering holistic, in-house support for survivors across the South Asian and Indo-Caribbean diaspora: a helpline and text line, safety planning, immigration and family law support, trauma-informed counseling, housing assistance, culturally specific food access, economic empowerment, job coaching, and more.
