Current Issue
TMYS Review - June 2021 themed on MIGRATION, RESETTLEMENT & DISPLACEMENT: The DIASPORIC Movement is our fifth issue carrying short stories, essays and digital interviews of twenty delegates comprising of renowned authors and professors based in United Kingdom, United States of America, Canada and Australia.
TMYS Review June 2021, launched in collaboration with the University of Birmingham, makes a conscious attempt to engage scholars with the nonfiction stories of the contemporary era and compile stories of migration and resettlement by the Indian diaspora in the UK, the US, Canada and Australia. This work is important because we believe that personal stories, about a place or time, are also important contributors through which history can be recorded and even understood. Philip Neilsen talks about such records as “history that does not pretend to be empirically verifiable”.
It is our endeavour to create a better understanding of the Indian diaspora and add to the existing repository of the official and state sponsored documents (on the condition of the Indian diaspora in these countries) with the lived experiences of such people, and find out if they corroborate or undercut the official versions. We have tried to find out their experiences as individuals and as a member of a community living away from their country of origin.
The stories and essays in the DIASPORA issue are further contributions towards such investigation.
