Partition of IndiaBorders, memory and displacement
// TALK & FILM
Featuring a talk by eminent cultural historian, scholar, and author Dr Anwesha Roy, alongside a screening of the film Manto, this event examines the 1947 Partition of British India not merely as a political line drawn on a map, but as a deeply human experience.
Situating Partition within the end of British colonial rule and the colonial and postcolonial making of borders, the lecture and film explore how its enduring memories continue to shape lives, identities and the contemporary landscape of the Indian subcontinent.
Talk: Remembering Partition (30 min talk & 15 min Q&A)
