KALI, BOOKS AND WOMEN
Synopsis: Kali for Women, India’s first women’s publishing house, exists since 1984. Founded in New Delhi by two militant feminists, publisher and French language writer Urvashi Butalia and Ritu Menon, its objective has been to increase the body of knowledge on women in the Third World.
It also continues to denounce violence against women in Indian society. Working closely with groups of women workers and farmers, the two publishers have brought out a quality literature, supporting the careers of their authors for as long as five or ten years.
