There is nothing wrong in demanding the recognition for " Sushruta " . For he was an early & great physician from India .

Question is was he completely Omitted from Indian textbooks or it's just about the title of " father of surgery " . That bothers people like Anshul .

As for the Status of Al Zahrawi . It is the Amount of work & it's usage even in modern times that makes people to mention as " father of surgery " .
Whole Western Academia recognises his worth !

There is a huge gap between the Amount of work he produced to that of Sushruta's.
Al - Tasrif , Translated into Latin in the 12th century by the scholar Gerard of Cremona, it stood for nearly 500 years as the leading textbook on surgery in Europe, preferred for its concise lucidity even to the works of the classic Greek medical authority Galen.
Sushruta was around 500- 600 BCE .

For if the category to be ( father of surgery ) is only about who did work in medicine & surgery earlier , then a Case can be made for Ancient Egyptians who also did surgery .

Why not mention them as father's Of S , instead of Sushruta ?
As for Sushruta , even if you term him as father of surgery in your textbooks .
His works were Great but minimal in No. & Only for his time .

Today no medical College professor will teach you to do surgery using leafs , plants & woods sticks & it's Power as equipment & Drugs !
Indicating a Conspiracy behind mention of Al Zahrawi in kerala textbook is just Anshul's wild Assumption based on his inferiority complex

As Al-Zahrawi is already Considered by many in Academia as F of surgery
It's not a unjust , Un-Academic , forced inclusion that's for sure

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
