A year ago, we hosted a #JallianwalaBaghMassacre commemoration. We reflect on some of the thoughts from the day.
Postcards of reflection from yesterday’s #JallianwalaBagh 100 years on. “Lesson taken away is that we need to reflect and honour our past...and embrace our future” #Reflection #JallianwalaBaghMassacre @LondonFaiths @citysikhs @CityHindus @assocmuslimlaw @_JasvirSingh @amanmadra

We would like to wish our co chair the best of luck and health. Thank you for everything you do for the @NHSuk 🙏🏼
After 2 weeks off (virus recovery and remote working), looking forward to getting back to the frontline tomorrow. Absolutely nothing will be the same as when I went off. It’s going to be like entering a parallel universe....

Brilliant to see this group growing and going from strength to strength! A really talented bunch of individuals, some really positive things happening. #partitioncommemoration #southasianheritagemonth @_JasvirSingh @LondonFaiths @ward_esme @willgupshup @itsanitarani
On route to London to discuss the importance of delivering a balanced curriculum that includes the relationship between #BritishEmpire and South Asia; specifically how to teach #Partition and the relevance to Britain's diversity. #SouthAsia *is* part of #BritishHistory

Fantastic to speak to the legend that is @azizibrahim56 tonight! Looking forward to having a coffee and discussing how we incorporate music and arts, together with some proper Manchester Culture, into #southasianheritagemonth 2020 to engage young people from all backgrounds.

72 years ago British India was divided along religious lines into India and Pakistan. There was joy at independence. But partition saw millions migrate and terrible violence. Some went on to live in Britain. They kept their silence #partitionvoices tells their stories. THREAD

Hey Twitter - we'd love to know about UK-based South Asian female historians! We were lucky to meet the incredible @priyaatwal + @JhuttiJay at the @bimcic event last year but would love to expand our list as it's an area we're hoping to do some work in 🙆🏽♀️ #SouthAsianHistorians
