| Hello Thiruvengadam, I’ve known Sudipto Mondal, the host of What’s Your Ism, for 12 years. From covering crime for The Hindu to writing deep, reflective pieces for Hindustan Times and Al Jazeera, Sudipto’s career trajectory has been anything but ordinary. And peculiar too. Why do I say that? Because his journey, I believe, has been shaped by the world around him—particularly by events like the tragic death of Rohith Vemula. These experiences didn’t just change him as a person; they also steered the course of his career. A few years ago, Sudipto wrote in Al Jazeera that “Indian media wants Dalit news but not Dalit reporters,” boldly calling out caste privilege and domination in newsrooms. His words made many uncomfortable, and he soon found himself edged out of mainstream newsrooms. But Sudipto’s story doesn’t end there. From his reporting in communally polarised Mangalore to investigating the PMO, he’s covered it all. That’s why we’re ending the year with a special episode of What’s Your Ism, where Sudipto will answer your questions. Tune in now to listen to the full conversation!
