🎙️ MediaFx Opinion

From a working‑class, socialist lens ✊: This doc, produced by Western media, risks turning Sidhu's story into sensational drama—bypassing community context and the family's grief. It’s a reminder of media power in shaping narratives. We believe real justice means supporting transparency in the court, resisting capitalist-driven storytelling that silences marginalized communities, and pushing for equitable representation. Let’s not let this be another celebrity tale—let it spark real action for justice and accountability from the bottom up.
