Darab Farooqui And more importantly, It is NOT my responsibility to vet the speakers YOU are hosting.
THE ONUS IS NOT ON ME, IT IS ON YOU TO ENSURE THIS IS NEVER REPEATED. (11/11)
Darab Farooqui I have been repeatedly highlighting the gravity of the situation to you since Friday night with no acknowledgement.
It SHOULDN’T take a call out from women for men to feel responsible enough to own upto their actions the moment things are brought to their attention. (10/n)
Darab Farooqui Even if you didn’t know beforehand, there is no reason to have not put up an apology for 3 days or to not have acknowledged the concerns that are being brought to your attention despite seeing the messages. (9/n)
Darab Farooqui ...I would sincerely request you to back down and not host these spaces that talk about social justice. We will not put up with this. And when I say we, this is a collective response from a bunch of women. (7/n)
Darab Farooqui Do you see how problematic all this is, Darab? The onus is not on me or any of the other members of the audience to ensure the spaces you hold are safe and inclusive for women. If you do not have the resources to ensure the speakers are not well known assaulters.. (6/n)
Darab Farooqui “For the future, we will issue a list of the speakers, in advance, if you have any problem, please speak up. So that we don’t have to go through this process again. We neither have the resources nor the means to vet every speaker that comes and shares the stage with us.” (5/n)
Darab Farooqui 4. That’s when I see your acknowledgement on my messages where you have put the onus on me to do a background check on the speakers YOU will host, so that YOU do not have to go through this again.
Quoting your words here... (5/n)
Darab Farooqui 3. After being tired of trying to explain the basic things about accountability and the right thing to do, we publicly announced on social media that this behaviour is condemned and we will hold you accountable for not being apologetic about having platforming an abuser. (4/n)
Darab Farooqui 2. Over the course of last 3 days, there have been multiple messages sent to both you and Fahad informing about the gravity of the situation. To which there wasn’t any response or acknowledgement even after you seeing the messages. (3/n)
Darab Farooqui .. Meghnad being a sexual abuser. The article was good enough a proof to issue an unconditional apology IMMEDIATELY for having platformed an abuser on a public forum relating to a social justice movement. Well, that didn’t happen. (2/n)
Darab Farooqui Here are a series of some of the very problematic things that happened before this statement has been put out.
1. This was brought to yours and Fahad’s attention on the very same night with the details of the allegations and the article that was published on Meghnad.. (1/n)
We can't ignore the potential point that Narendra Modi could have asked twitter to suspend her account. Because she called Modi ji responsible for 2002 Gujarat Muslim genocide. 2002 still haunts him. She asked Modi to become Monster once again.
