Connected Histories: Muslims in the First World War – Participation, Practice, Social Justice
Tuesday 15 September, 6pm – 8.30pm, University of Birmingham, School of Education, G38
Connected Histories: Muslims in the First World War is an educational project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund that has been collecting new evidence on Muslim participation in the First World War.
In this event designed for practitioners and academics, we invite reflections on historical memory as a kind of educational practice. Why is historical memory so important? What are its distinctive properties? What opportunities does it offer for the promotion of social justice?
