Hey everyone any Assamese people on Tumblr?

i have some questions on representation, one of my characters, well not really MINE but like in a fandom I'm in, is Assamese and I'd like to ask some things. Disclaimer I'm not assamese myself. I'm tamil.

Ok so we have this chapters on structural and cultural changes in society in our Sociology textbook and there's a page where parts about the tea plantations in Assam is given and how Britishers used to lie and coax people from other places like Jharkhand or Bengal to go work in tea plantations. And how they were treated badly and so many of them died. While the planters and officers were living lives in luxury.

And that reminded me of this very beautiful bengali song that's about the same topic so I wanted to share. You'll think the song is about something happy bit if you know the language and look into the lyrics it's just so sad and heartbreaking cuz the person is talking about how they were lied to and taken to Assam in hopes of money and a better life. But now they are overworked all day and the babus and shahebs torture them and beats them.

And this song always makes me so sad because as a kid when I didn't knew the lyrics or history in details I used to feel so happy about this song but now that I know the real meaning it just feels so painful to me

What's the Assamese mother-daughter paradox?

It's that both of them call each other "Maa"

Sometimes they take it up a notch and throw in the grandma too, and now we got three of them calling each other "Maa"
