YaliniDream: Marian Yalini Thambynayagam

This was from 2009 which I saw via SepiaMutiny.  Looked it up again.
Comment on SepiaMutiny
what I appreciate about her is her refusal to be categorized. So much of the polarization of politics in Sri Lanka and the diaspora hinges on the desire to categorize. One is either considered pro-Tamil or a patriot. One either loves Sri Lanka or is considered a traitor. By refusing to be categorized, she reminds us that such political tactics silence most experiences and therefore need to be destabilized and questioned.
Based on the website http://www.yalinidream.com/ looks like not around since 2011.
