Raman Mundair - Early Life

Early Life

Mundair was born in Ludhiana, Punjab (India) and migrated with her Mother to Manchester, England in the 70s. She is a first generation British Asian but resists pigeon-holing saying that she refuses to “reduce my identity just so that binary minds can read me.” She lived in Manchester until she was fifteen and then moved to Loughborough (UK). She left the East Midlands (UK) to study History at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.

    Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
