LoSHA (List of Sexual Harassers in Academia) was a crowdsourced list of sexual harassers in academia that was compiled in 2017 by Raya Sarkar, a Dalit law student studying at UC Davis School of Law[1][2]. This list, published on Sarkar's Facebook page[3] with the intention of a cautionary list rather than for institutional action[4], was cited to have marked the advent of the #MeToo movement in India.[5][6]
Sarkar received death threats within days of publishing the list which included professors from renowned institutions including Indian Institute of Technology (Bhubaneswar) and Tata Institute of Social Sciences.[7] Fourteen notable self-proclaimed feminists including Nivedita Menon and Kavita Krishnan also published a statement expressing dismay over the list, citing a commitment to due process.
