In September 2019, the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH) at the University of Cambridge held Migrant Knowledge, Early Modern and Beyond as an event “at the crossroads” of art, scholarship, and activism. It brought together people from all three groups “to think about migration and what it does with, and to, knowledge.” In this short movie, the people involved reflect on both the event and topic from different angles.
The role of children in history matters, including in knowledge formation and in migration. Simone Lässig introduces a miniseries about children and youth as go-betweens in migration contexts, whether people migrated or knowledge itself.
