Rose concludes by highlighting what we can gain by studying the #telegraph from below:

1) Restoring agency to labor force
2) How race shaped labor divisions in imperial eng. projects
3) Challenging narratives of colonial progress (imp. of "low/slow" tech & processes)

This photo shows the crew of the CS (cable ship) Patrick Stewart—named for 1st director general of the Indian Telegraph Service (not @SirPatStew)—which fixed Indian Ocean & Persian Gulf cables.

Rose notes the prominence presence of South Asian laborers on this vessel. #SHOT2022

Rose provides a historical overview of the Indo-European Telegraph Department, noting how people of different ethnicities were assigned to specific types of work. (e.g., Armenians & Anglo-Indians selected for signaling.)
