A year ago, we hosted a #JallianwalaBaghMassacre commemoration. We reflect on some of the thoughts from the day.

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.

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
