Delhi 1984: Memories of a massacre

25 years ago, beginning in June and journeying through November - all during a time when India's State Sponsored Pogroms were being conducted to eliminate the Sikh population of Delhi and surrounding areas, in a period of 3-4 days over 20,000 Sikhs were burned alive.

Until today, those that are responsible for the massacre, continue to roam free making a mockery of justice - a tale all too familiar in so called democratic states like India.

If everyone could take a moment and remember, reflect, recognize.
