Sentiments of our posters SCA and Kwami 
"I think it's important to heal. The wound may have been covered over
but it is still eating away at the body of the people who live
in the Indian subcontinent and the diaspora"
"It's still continuing to this day.
For me the reverberations of partition exist in our everyday ".

Dennis, British Army :
"We were fairly thin on the ground by August 1947.
On Independence Day I was in Lahore making my way back to England.
I remember people shaking my hand saying :
‘Thank you. Thank you for making us independent.’
"We all - sort of people like myself, British officers
- felt partition went through too fast.
The whole thing was not thought through..
I think the British government of the day was anxious to get it done quickly.
It was a great mistake."
