Hi, I’m Sukhraj Singh from Sikh Archive and welcome to the fourteenth episode in our Podcast series of conversations with historians, authors, academics, journalists and activists on topics related to their areas of expertise on Sikh or Panjabi history.
In this episode we are joined by Professor Seema Sohi who is Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. We discuss her book, “Echoes of Mutiny” which examines the radical anticolonial politics of South Asian intellectuals and migrant workers based in North America during the early twentieth century as well as the inter-imperial efforts of the U.S. and British states to repress them.
This book is a personal favourite of mine and I have been a huge fan of Seema Sohi’s work because it really illustrates the radical dimension of history found among the Sikh and Panjabi diaspora. So it’s a pleasure to bring this episode to you all.
