PRIMROSE HILL LECTURES: Mishal Husain in conversation with Amelia Gentleman

  • The Parish Church of St Mary-the-Virgin Elsworthy Road London, England, NW3 3DJ United Kingdom (map)

Mishal Husain is the very definition of unruffled professionalism. As one of the BBC's most respected broadcasters, she presents news and documentaries calmly and authoritatively. By contrast, her family history is considerably more turbulent. Her four grandparents experienced struggle, upheaval and love-against-the-odds. In conversation with journalist, Amelia Gentleman (author of The Windrush Betrayal), Mishal will explore the ways in which her relatives dealt with the dramatic events of partition in 1947 and tell the personal stories of their displacement against the backdrop of empire and the struggle for independence.
