Sana Aiyar- I am a historian of Modern South Asia. My broad research and teaching interests lie in the inter-regional, colonial and post-colonial history of South Asia and South Asians across the Indian Ocean. I am currently working on a political history of the Indian diaspora in colonial Kenya between 1910-1968. In particular, I am interested in the ways in which the Indian diaspora transcended boundaries of race and nation, challenging along the way the political limitations of territorially-bound and racially-defined anti-colonial nationalism.
