Art and Media initiative for the labour, of the labour and by the labour
We laborers are here to express ourselves: to cry, laugh, get angry, celebrate, get emotional, be silly, and yes, be vulnerable (though we already are). We are here to rise, to fight, to mingle, to protest, to protect—and I mean protecting you all—and so much more. Do you want to hear us?

गिनती सिर्फ हमारे हाथों और पैरों की की जाती है,
हमारे सपनों और उम्मीदों की नहीं।
गिना जाता है सिर्फ काम शहर में,
हम मजदूरों को नहीं।
-कुमार
It is only our hands and legs that gets counted,
Not of our dreams and hopes.
It is only the work that gets counted in the city,
Not us, the workers.
-Kumar
