Threats & Tats: Afghanistan’s ‘Forbidden’ Tattoo Artist | Under the Ink

For the past 3 years, Soraya has been running her mobile tattoo studio in Kabul. She doesn’t keep her shop’s address fixed due to security reasons, because her job can be a dangerous one in Afghanistan. Though tattoos are not foreign to Afghan culture, ink-on-skin artists like Soraya can easily land in trouble with the dormant Taliban, with their fundamentalist interpretation of the Sharia law. Touching and tattooing male clients is an added taboo for her as she makes her way as the first female tattoo artist in the country.

South Korean Women Are Using Sex As Means of Protest

South Korea is on the verge of a dramatic shift in views about feminism, sex, and pornography. The country has struggled for decades with the emergence of spy-cam porn, hidden cameras secretly left recording in public bathrooms, changing rooms, and hotel suites. Violence against women grabbed national headlines and a record number of Korean women have been hitting the streets to protest the ill effects of Korea’s ever-present patriarchy. In this episode of Sex Rated, VICE travels to Seoul to meet with the women trying to break down Korea’s rigid gender roles by sparking new conversations about sex, dating, consent, and kink. We hit the streets of Seoul, and go behind closed doors, to learn how Koreans’ views on sex and relationships is in the midst of a massive sea of change.

Siddhant Bhosle - Din Aur Raatein [Official Music Video]

Available on JioSaavn, Gaana, Spotify, Apple Music and all your favourite platforms: https://smarturl.it/dinaurraatein This song, 'Din Aur Raatein', was born out of a journaling experience. One day during lockdown, I wrote down my thoughts and feelings on paper. Feelings that I know are shared by people around the world - we're longing for comfort, for people, spaces, and memories. The song attempts to capture the emotions of the hour by depicting the present as a fleeting moment, something that will surely pass. Even though it may feel as though we're stuck in an endless loop, and while we’re finding ways to adapt to the “new normal”, I’m confident that we will be able to hug our loved ones again and tell them all that we have to say... in person.

Jitne Door Hum, Utne Qareeb Hain, Dil Ko, Kaise Bataayein. Faasle Bhi Zaroori Hain, Nazdeekiyaan Badhane Ko. Din Aur Raatein, Behte Hi Jayein Re, Zindagi, Thamsi Gayi Hai. Jitne Door Hum, Utne Qareeb Hain, Dil Ko, Kaise Bataayein. Scrolling the day away, I’m sleepless at night 'cause I miss you, I know we’ll get through. Abhi Abhi Mila Tha Tumse, Abhi Abhi Judaa Hua Kyun, Jaanu Na Jaanu Na. Abhi Abhi Toh Sab Sahi Tha, Abhi Abhi Ruka Hai Sab Kyun, Jaanu Na, Par Rukte Na Yeh. Din Aur Raatein, Behte Hi Jayein Re, Zindagi, Thamsi Gayi Hai. Jitne Door Hum, Utne Qareeb Hain, Tumko, Milke Batayenge #DinAurRaatein #SiddhantBhosle

The Casteless Collective - An Indian Folk Music Band Fighting for Social Justice

The Casteless Collective - An Indian Folk Music Band Fighting for Social Justice

The Casteless Collective is an ensemble music band that essentially, in the words of its co-founder Tenma, comes from the soil of North Madras. Singing songs that talk about the inherent inequalities that exist in Indian society, inequalities that arise out of a rigid caste system that refuses to let people be free, The Casteless Collective’s music is both engaging and disruptive. The band refuses to adhere to the Brahmanical playbook that essentially says that if you belong to the ‘lower caste’, if you are an ‘untouchable’ then you don’t get to have a voice. The Casteless Collective has a voice — a voice that is made up of funeral musicians who learned to play their instruments in a graveyard, Gaana singers who sing about systematic oppression, rappers who talk about inequalities. In this episode of VICE Meets, the members of The Casteless Collective talk about how the band came to be, how PA Ranjith, a famous director decided to express his activism through art, and how songs like Kaalu Rooba Dhuttu gave voice to the plight of manual scavengers, Finally, they talk about how the goal of a casteless society cannot be achieved by ‘refusing to see caste’ (something that upper-caste India is guilty of), but it can be achieved by acknowledging the divides that continue to exist and fragment Indian society and then working towards eliminating them — essentially by creating a truly casteless society. **Translation of Tamil to English in the video by Shrishti Mathew.
