it's strange how little consciousness of the 1971 genocide in Bangladesh there is in the West, given how awful it was. a combination of racism and Cold War alliances with Pakistan, I suppose, but you'd think that there would have been some breakthrough book of the "Rape of Nanking" scale by now
Do you have any good resources on this? I have a Bangladeshi cousin in law but don’t want to ask her
