It's Tuesday! So far this month, we've been talking about anti-Blackness in South Asian communities in response to events in the US & UK. It's also June aka Pride month 🏳️🌈 so we'll be talking in coming weeks abt LGBTQIA+ South Asian heritage. #SharedHeritage #OSCH #kickthedust
Today though, I want to talk about something you might not have heard about - June is a significant month for the Sikh community as it marks the anniversary of a darker time in our history, from the year 1984. #sikhheritage #OSCH #Sharedheritage
Before lockdown, we had been preparing @GlasgowMuseums to welcome work by Nep Sidhu, a Sikh artist whose work responds to the events of 1984, the resulting trauma & need for healing within the Sikh community, as part of @GIfestival. glasgowinternational.org/artists/nep-si…
