OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
People of subcontinental heritage in Britain – ‘British Asians’ or ‘British South Asians’ have a shared history of family migration to the UK from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. Historically they have much in common, and share many solidarities, but there are also significant political, economic and cultural differences between communities. Aimed at the non-specialist this talk will outline some of the key debates about – and between – British South Asians. As politics in the Indian subcontinent continues to create conflicts between British Asians, I’ll argue that understanding these differences matters for understanding modern Britain today.
Speaker details: Dr Yasmin Khan (Department for Continuing Education, Faculty of History)
