Baba Betar is an art radio and contemporary sound archive that began its journey in March 2020, in the height of a countrywide lockdown in Bangladesh due to the spread of COVID-19. With most of its programs on literature, Baba Betar aired readings of literary works that would help its listeners to understand and cope with a global pandemic. Daily broadcasts included readings of essays and poems about what caused the pandemic, its economic and political context, criticism of the purpose of the worldwide lockdown and its impact on Bangladesh.
