Swades: We, the People (2004) 🎬A successful Indian scientist returns to an Indian village to take his nanny to America with him and in the process rediscovers his roots.
📝Came across this on Netflix and what a pleasant surprise this turned out to be (there are some funny continuity errors but ignore them because they don't really take away from the beauty of this film). It's a very sweet, uplifting, emotional and thought provoking story. I think it will resonate with anyone who wants a purpose in life. It shows a simpler life and also the challenges faced by many. The film will also make you want to travel to India. It takes inspiration from Mahatma Gandhi's message and over all a beautiful film.

Has it never occurred to you that it is much your duty to make your lives and environment beautiful as to make them moral, in fact that without beauty there can be no true morality, without morality no true beauty?

The west is a lot more industrialized than much of the global south, and in many ways has lost a lot more of its past and memory to time and labor.
But we remember. Somehow, despite all that was lost under colonial weight, this was not. I've seen my grandmother's spinning wheel, and I inherited her ancient sewing machine. I've never touched a charkha myself, but I sing folk songs that remember spinning it. I dance to songs about spinning, and I cry to them too.
I thought it would make you feel better, to know that. Not everything ancient is dead. Often, it's alive in song, if in nothing else.
I've had a hard time articulating to people just how fundamental spinning used to be in people's lives, and how eerie it is that it's vanished so entirely. It occurred to me today that it's a bit like if in the future all food was made by machine, and people forgot what farming and cooking were. Not just that they forgot how to do it; they had never heard of it.
When they use phrases like "spinning yarns" for telling stories or "heckling a performer" without understanding where they come from, I imagine a scene in the future where someone uses the phrase "stir the pot" to mean "cause a disagreement" and I say, did you know a pot used to be a container for heating food, and stirring was a way of combining different components of food together? "Wow, you're full of weird facts! How do you even know that?"
When I say I spin and people say "What, like you do exercise bikes? Is that a kind of dancing? What's drafting? What's a hackle?" it's like if I started talking about my cooking hobby and my friend asked "What's salt? Also, what's cooking?" Well, you see, there are a lot of stages to food preparation, starting with planting crops, and cooking is one of the later stages. Salt is a chemical used in cooking which mostly alters the flavor of the food but can also be used for other things, like drawing out moisture...
"Wow, that sounds so complicated. You must have done a lot of research. You're so good at cooking!" I'm really not. In the past, children started learning about cooking as early as age five ("Isn't that child labor?"), and many people cooked every day their whole lives ("Man, people worked so hard back then."). And that's just an average person, not to mention people called "chefs" who did it professionally. I go to the historic preservation center to use their stove once or twice a week, and I started learning a couple years ago. So what I know is less sophisticated than what some children could do back in the day.
"Can you make me a snickers bar?" No, that would be pretty hard. I just make sandwiches mostly. Sometimes I do scrambled eggs. "Oh, I would've thought a snickers bar would be way more basic than eggs. They seem so simple!"
Haven't you ever wondered where food comes from? I ask them. When you were a kid, did you ever pick apart the different colored bits in your food and wonder what it was made of? "No, I never really thought about it." Did you know rice balls are called that because they're made from part of a plant called rice? "Oh haha, that's so weird. I thought 'rice' was just an adjective for anything that was soft and white."
People always ask me why I took up spinning. Isn't it weird that there are things we take so much for granted that we don't even notice when they're gone? Isn't it strange that something which has been part of humanity all across the planet since the Neanderthals is being forgotten in our generation? Isn't it funny that when knowledge dies, it leaves behind a ghost, just like a person? Don't you want to commune with it?
#fibre arts#textiles#spinning wheels#for all that i will endlessly criticize gandhi#the swadeshi movement saved us in many ways#this is one of them#also#not all anciet crafts are going extinct#leather is still worked and cured today the way it was for most of human history#if you buy handmade shoes#theyre still made the same way too#art survives#hope this makes you feel better op#i fully intend to learn how to use a spinning wheel when i get the chance#spinning#desiblr#history#also even in the west i kind of ended up amongst fibre arts nerds anyway#so spinning and knitting and stitching were still regular tasks all around me#nerds keep history alive

Swadeshi Movement in India
The Swadesh Movement had its genesis in the anti-partition movement which was stated to oppose the British decision to partition Bengal. The Government’s decision to partition Bengal had been made public in December 1903. The official reason given for the decision was that Bengal with a population of 78 million (about a quarter of the population of British India) had become too big to be…
