Although Sikhs were some of the first South Asians to settle in the United States, the scholarly study of Sikhism has been late to arrive at the scene. Mark Sikh Awareness and Appreciation Month in Illinois on April 23 by joining our roundtable discussion with a slate of senior scholars in the field who will speak about their own connections to Sikhism and talk about new directions and challenges in contemporary Sikh Studies. The event is sponsored by the Committee on Southern Asian Studies, the Sikh Students Association, and the Office of Spiritual Life at the University of Chicago.

The event will be moderated by Sunit Singh, Assistant Instructional Professor, in the College, and introduced by Mayher Kaur of the Sikh Students Association.
