The Rowlatt Act let the British jail Indians without trial, and Gandhiji called it a 'black law' for its injustice. But my ammayi used to say the real blackness was how it stole our neighbour's son away in the night, leaving his family to run their chayakkada alone. Yet, that loss stirred our village to quietly hide protest pamphlets in schoolbooks, much like I now hide my study notes—a small defiance that lights more hope than any law can darken.
