Focusing on the vibrant activism within South Asian cities, this book explores how feminist, transgender, and queer movements are reshaping politics and asserting constitutional rights in urban India and Pakistan. Through interviews with courageous intersectional feminists, it highlights their firsthand experiences of staging protests and artistic interventions amidst significant legal reforms and societal debates. The narrative delves into the complexities of violence, justice, and the transformative power of community engagement in a rapidly urbanizing landscape.
