Dear Readers,
I am excited to share with you the announcement + launch of Berkana’s new series ‘Riders of the tempest’. Keeping Berkana’s main vision of retelling obscure truths in focus, this series is engineered to add another dimension to this newsletter. This series celebrates the spirit of courage that has continued to be the constant theme of Berkana. In this series, I will narrate some crisp and invigorating stories of badass women who ‘rode the tempest’ or in other words depicted fortitude in face of death. I have planned to release one newsletter per month for this series. The element of surprise shall be the weekend on which you can expect this newsletter and the woman of the month. Just so that I am clear about my offerings - this series is in addition to the usual Berkana cultural deep dives and not instead of it. I hope you will stick around and cheer me on, as I experiment more with the Berkana flavors!
Today’s Storm Rider is an extraordinary woman of ordinary birth.
