South Asian Studies – FALL SERIES
The South Asian Studies Institute (SASI) selected four lectures and screenings for the South Asian Studies FALL SERIES
A mix of lectures and film screenings from B.C. and beyond!
October 22, 2024
Online Lecture by Ms. Karimah Rahman on Decolonial Resistance of a Muslim Indo-Caribbean Woman.
Ms. Rahman’s states that she embodies multiplicity, nuance, range in her lived experiences at the intersection of being a woman, Muslim, Indo-Caribbean, or Muslim Indo-Caribbean, a descendant of ancestors who were indentured labourers as well as simultaneously a part of the Caribbean, Indian, South Asian and Muslim diasporas. These are all intersectional positionalities themselves and all of these identities are valid simultaneously (the whole intersectional spectrum, multiplicity, nuance, range of lived experiences etc.).
There will be a Q&A session after Ms. Rahman’s lecture.
Location: Online via Zoom
Time: 3:30-5:00 PM
RSVP here. A registration link will be sent to you a week before the event.

Film Screening: – Unarchived, The Incomplete History of Marginalized Communities in British Columbia –
In this National Film Board documentary, Hayley Gray and Elad Tzadok survey the inspiring work of a handful of community archives across British Columbia. They talk to curators and archivists from groups traditionally marginalized or excluded communities: Indigenous, Queer, Trans, the Chinese Canadian Museum, the Tahltan Nation, the South Asian Legacy Project, and others. Along the way, we learn the secret, neglected, and untold histories we only think we know.
Location: Room K155, Building K (Behind the Abbotsford Centre), University of the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford Campus
Time: 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM
