A young freelance journalist of Chattogram will interview the legendary Noam Chomsky for the first time on a Bangladeshi platform on Wednesday.
Chomsky, an American linguist and philosopher, will join the Facebook Live of a Bangladeshi interviewing organisation called T-Cup on Wednesday.
Chomsky, also famous as a social critic, will speak live at the event from 10 am about South Asian politics and Bangladesh’s political prospects and refugees.
Tanbirul Miraj Ripon, the founder of T-Cup (a non-profit organisation) and the presenter of the event confirmed the news to UNB.
Ripon, a young freelance journalist from Chattogram, is an undergraduate in journalism.
His organisation hosts interviews on political issues in South Asia by inviting experts from around the globe.
“I reached Chomsky for the first time in the beginning of 2018 through email . He liked my ideas which inspired me to share more of my philosophies about politics, journalism and life in general with him.”
“At least 3 long interview sessions can be conducted from our question -answer sessions in mail. So I offered to host the man himself on our platform which he agreed to.’
“ But this is not the end, we are ready to surprise everyone by bringing more popular journalists, philosophers, strategists and politicians of the world to our interviewing sessions gradually,” Ripon added.
The event is sponsored by ‘Mohar’ Fashion House, another affiliate of T-Cup.
