  pm \n Online \n\nSpeakers \nMallika Kaur \n\nDescription: \nThe Departmen
 t for Historical Studies at UTM and the Multi-Faith Centre at UTSG togethe
 r with the Department for the Study of Religion are excited to present a v
 irtual talk with Mallika Kaur on her recent book 'Faith, Gender, and Act
 ivism in the Punjab Conflict: The Wheat Fields Still Whisper.' Faith, Gen
 der, and Activism in the Punjab Conflict: The Wheat Fields Still WhisperP
 unjab was the arena of one of the first major armed conflicts of post-colo
 nial India. During its deadliest decade 1984-1994, as many as 250,000 pe
 ople were killed. This book makes an urgent intervention in the history of
  the conflict, which to date has been characterized by a fixation on sens
 ational violence—or ignored altogether. Mallika Kaur unearths the life sto
 ries of extraordinary people who found themselves at the center of Punjab'
 s hazardous human rights movement. Braiding oral histories, community his
 tory going back to 1839, personal snapshots, and primary documents recov
 ered from at-risk archives, Kaur shows that when entire conflicts are mar
 ginalized, we miss essential stories: stories of faith, feminist action\
 , and the power of citizen-activists.https://punjabconflict.orgBio: Mallik
 a Kaur is a lawyer and writer who focuses on human rights, with a special
 ization in gender and minority issues. She received her BA from University
  of Chicago; Master in Public Policy from Harvard University, and her Ju
 ris Doctorate from the UC Berkeley School of Law, where she currently tea
 ches skills-based and experiential social justice classes.To register, pl
