The Sri Lankan protests which forced President Gotabaya Rajapaksa out of office featured memes, viral videos, songs, dances, cartoons and caricatures. The protest art conveyed what mainstream media couldn’t - or wouldn’t: Sri Lankans were done with the Rajapaksas and the corruption that came with them.

We spoke with:
Hasini Haputhanthri, Cultural sociologist
Sanjana Hattotuwa, Research Fellow, The Disinfo Project
Randy Chriz Perera, Artist & Animator
Vasi Samudra Devi, Artist & Activist
