JOHN DEVARAJ of the Born Free Art School writes: Spartacus was the first man throw a stone against slavery in Rome 2, 000 years ago. He freed and raised an army 90,000 slaves in two battles. In his final campaign, the might of the Roman superior army crushed the rebellion. Spartacus, along with 6,000 slaves, was crucified.
But the spirit of Spartacus has lived on and all social revolutions the world over owe their genesis to Spartacus. Spartacus never died! Did he? No never! He returned to India and saw a 134 million child-slaves toiling. He has brought them together to fight the Lords of Labour.
Over 100 freed working, street and school children will perform and dedicate the funds gathered for the development of the Bornfree Art School, which is an exclusive school for the children of street, working and bonded labourers.

Why is churumuri giving importance to a tamil christian in bangalore.They have their own agendas and ulterior motives.
@the myopic xenophobe above:
try getting past your hang-ups! — notice that this is an event for the benefit of STREET CHILDREN!!!
in my view, motives dont get much better than this!
i fail to understand what ulterior motives you’re talking about?
moreover, your post makes me want to ask YOU about YOUR MOTIVES???
… is that your religous intolerance shining through??
… or is that just the racist in you speaking up??
personally i don’t usually make generalizations, but i think your comments only demonstrate the underlying hostility that Bangalore has towards ‘outsiders’….. and underlines the reason why at every small opportunity the city erupts into violence. IT IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU….intolerant and pseudo-educated, who shame this city (in your attempts to “defend” it).
i can only hope you will come into the light… perhaps, when you realize that there are people around you who really dont give a frig about caste, religion, and race… maybe then you will recalibrate your sense of what is good and realize what an imbecile you have been.

Dear KP,
Do you see the Light?
…”i can only hope you will come into the light… perhaps, when you realize that there are people around you who really dont give a frig about caste, religion, and race… maybe then you will recalibrate your sense of what is good and realize what an imbecile you have been…”
There you go! Jesus is never far away!
Or in the words of our own, original ‘a tamil christian opinionated man’, ‘Dorai’ Jesus is always there to help the slaves and their slave masters.
stop grasping at straws.
i meant “come into the light” in the most conventional sense…. no dorai, no jesus and certainly no hidden phraseology.
What you’re accusing me of… That my intention was to sneak-in christian lingo, means that you never actually read/comprehended what i typed ahead. Or you chose not to.
if you actually re-read what i have written further, it becomes clear that my comment, far from being “christian” (!!!)…..was directed in the quite the OPPOSITE DIRECTION… i.e. AT BEING SECULAR. NON-RELIGIOUS.
“…when you realize that there are people around you who really dont give a frig about caste, religion, and race… ”
apparently, neither you nor the person to whom this comment was originally directed at, subscribe to the ideal of Secularism. I however, do….. if you think that has something do with my religion, my comment is wasted on you, since you will look at anything i type through a cynical eyes, and my attempts at justifying myself will be be for naught.
In hindsight, i think you it is my Nickname that irks you….. maybe if i had just stuck to Tamilian you wouldn’t have made insinuations like that!
And god forbid, i had used the phrase “come out of the darkness” instead of “come into the light”…..wait a minute!!!! i just said “god forbid”….shit…. another reference to dorai !!!!!
