South Asians for Justice Los Angeles (SAJ-LA) will be holding an event to remember and discuss the genocidal violence plaguing Gujarat, India since 2002. Please join us on Sunday, April 22nd to reflect, heal, and talk through the parallels between continued state violence in Gujarat and other injustices experienced by South Asians and other communities of color locally in Los Angeles and throughout the United States. The event will include a photography exhibit by Sahir Raza, a creative writing installation by the organizers of Sahiyar, discussions with activists Hamid Khan, Yasmin Qureshi and Gujarat-based Trupti Shah, performances by Elephants with Guns, and poetry by Naazneen Diwan and Taz Ahmed.

Refreshments and snacks will be served. Please RSVP on our facebook page. Also, for translation services, please contact (216) 952-7968. We hope to see you there.
