This event is part of the Yorkshire Festival of Story.
What stories risk being forgotten if we don’t write them down?
In this powerful session, discover how memoir can preserve overlooked histories and give voice to those pushed to the margins. Drawing on the 1972 Ugandan Asian expulsion and Nasim’s own father’s story Expelled from Uganda, Nasim shares moving insights and practical techniques for turning memory into narrative.
During this talk, you will learn how to adapt these tools for use in your own life writing so that your stories can connect families, communities, and generations across borders.
With space for questions, this is your chance to explore how storytelling keeps history alive and ensures voices are never silenced.
