About

“Kalemighty” is a place for Durga’s blogs and other activities in academic research. The site is created with a view to build on her intent to bring academic equity and to help find byways to reduce academic gate-keeping. Durga’s blogs are based on various themes along with hyperlinks to the material from museums across the world, and additional reading suggestions.

Durga Kale teaches humanities and social sciences courses, focusing on social justice, environmental ethics, religion and health-seeking, and other critical global conversations. Her Doctoral thesis looks at the Sacred Landscape along the west coast of India (Konkan, in particular). Her work intersects ethnographic, anthropological, and literary studies. With her background in archaeology, her work and curatorial experience in material culture contribute to her research. She supplements research on global conversations such as anti-racism, equity, diversity, and belonging. Her ongoing work with the Youth Anti-Racism Initiative (YARI) Collective is showcased here: YARI Collective
