All the contradictions of Empire that are related so well in @Sathnam’s best selling Empireworld are present in the story of the Indian Military Hospital in WWI Brighton. On the one hand, it hosted Indian soldiers wounded while fighting for the Empire, manifested British sensitivity to Indian cultures and religions, and prompted Brightonians to extend a fascinated welcome to the exotic ‘warriors from the East’. On the other hand it brought deep anxieties about cross- racial relationships and played a pivotal propaganda role in the maintenance of an Empire built fundamentally on White supremacy. @I_W_M blogs.sussex.ac.uk/snapshotsofemp…

Recovery from the #MoroccoEarthquake will take years. These are hard times. But with 2,000+ already confirmed dead, @ActionAidUK is appealing for #donations to support the victims. A tiny contribution or just sharing this link would be so appreciated🤗❤️ shorturl.at/em048

The graphic photographs of emaciated people were shocking. Week after week he published more, and is often credited with bringing the Bengal Famine, where millions died, to the world's attention. /3

It was risky. Not everyone at the paper thought it was a good idea. But Stephens brushed aside the objections. In his memoir, he wrote that by August 1943, as editor, he felt he had to do something, he would have felt ashamed afterwards if not. /2

On this day 80 years ago, Ian Stephens, the editor of the British-owned Statesman newspaper, challenged the wartime censorship rules in British India, and published two distressing photographs showing the extent of the famine unfolding on the streets of Kolkata in 1943 /1
