Issues – Information – Inspiration

Community media isn’t just informative, it’s now entertaining! Video Volunteers' first webshow "On the Ground" is an exciting 10 minutes of expert information, dynamic visuals, and stories from our IndiaUnheard Community Correspondents, who are living the issues they report on.
The show focuses on our recently launched campaign demanding that the government implement Article 17 of the Constitution of India, which criminalizes practices of untouchability. We deconstruct the reality of untouchability and the caste system in India, and offer actions that can be taken by ordinary citizens to produce impact in the most extraordinary ways. Join Bollywood actor Purab Kohli and VV director Stalin K On the Ground.

Enjoy the show and show your support to ending Untouchability once and for all by signing the ARTICLE 17 petition here.
