Episode description

In the pandemic, I recorded my 85-year-old grandmother recount her stories of India's partition with Pakistan. She was 10 years old at the time, and through her meandering conversations, we uncover stories of siblings and freedom fighting parents. She discusses the intricacies of making your own cloth (khadi), the jail bharo andolan and so much more. This was my little way to understand my grandmother's childhood. One that has made her wiser, calmer, and deeply spiritual, in the face of adversity.
