A visit to The Last Princesses of Punjab exhibition at Kensington Palace left me thinking about power, resistance and why the stories of South Asian women must never be allowed to disappear. Last Saturday, I spent the afternoon on a walking history tour before visiting The Last Princesses of Punjab exhibition at Kensington Palace. I went expecting …
