against England!”<br />

biological racism. Everything<br />
stops at Homo sapiens”<br />

technology”<br />

“Really happy to be here. More<br />
people should actively participate<br />
to introduce our ideas and<br />
literature to the world and present<br />
it on a global platform which, I<br />
believe, Dhaka Lit Fest aims to<br />
do.”<br />
