What do our names tell us about history, migration, places and people? What do they say about the world that we live in, the epic events that have shaped our parents’ and ancestors’ lives? How do they affect how we see ourselves?
Join award winning author Sheela Banerjee for a rich and reflective conversation with Mousumi Kanjilal-Williams; exploring the personal, family and global stories we carry within us through what we are called.
Sheela will discuss how she used her own name to tell a fascinating personal story of migration, empire and caste in her debut non-fiction book, What’s In A Name?, and you’ll be invited to bring your own name stories, and to think about the historical and political context that surrounds your name.
