Tithi Bhattacharya

Tithi Bhattacharya is Associate Professor of South Asian history at Purdue University.[1] She is a prominent Marxist feminist and one of the national organizers of the International Women's Strike on March 8, 2017.[2] Bhattacharya is a vocal advocate of Palestinian rights and Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS).

Bhattacharya is one of the authors of Feminism for the 99%: A Manifesto, which ties feminism to other modes of struggle, including anti-racism and anti-capitalism. On the topic of gender Bhattacharya has written the book The Sentinels of Culture, which developed from her dissertation on the British-educated middle class in 19th-century Kolkata.[3][1] She has also written on the politics of Islamophobia and women in Islam.

In March 2022, Bhattacharya was one of 151 international feminists to sign Feminist Resistance Against War: A Manifesto, in solidarity with the Feminist Anti-War Resistance initiated by Russian feminists after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
