We wear different collars but drink the same brew
What is a cup of tea? Besides being a subtle reminder of our colonial hangover, it serves (pun intended) as a symbol of Indian hospitality. And yet, the brew that is at the core of our Indianness, also mirrors the disparities within our society. There is an invisible connection between the colour of one's collar and the vessel he or she is served tea in, that we don't pay much attention to.
