UVa History grad student Swati Chawla will be assisting with Spring RA training on Friday! She'll be speaking on the subject: "Answering 'Where are you From?': Lessons from Modern South Asia." Swati will draw upon her research on citizenship in modern South Asia to lead a workshop that will help new RAs to understand the importance of itinerancy in the construction of the nation-state, and to reflect on the implications of our response to the commonplace inquiry: “Where are you from?”
