Recordings deposited at the Bishopsgate Institute by the Swadhinata Trust on 18 July 2006.

Fifty two oral history recordings compiled as part of the project, 'Tales of Three Generations of Bengalis in Britain', by the Swadhinata Trust (Nirmul Committee) and CRONEM (Centre for Research on Nationalism, Ethnicity & Multiculturalism, University of Surrey) covering three areas of interest:
'roots and memory' (dialogue between first and third generation on the history of Bangladesh and the 1971 war of independence)
'community creativity' (dialogue between second and third generation on welfare and community involvement in the UK, from the 1970s-80s)
'popular culture: between tradition and innovation' (across three generations, mainly focussing on traditional and more recent British Bengali musical heritage, from the 1970s-80s).

The collection is divided into the following sections:
SWADHINATA TRUST/1: 'roots and memory' (dialogue between first and third generation on the history of Bangladesh and the 1971 war of independence)
SWADHINATA TRUST/2: 'community creativity' (dialogue between second and third generation on welfare and community involvement in the UK, from the 1970s-80s)
SWADHINATA TRUST/3: 'popular culture: between tradition and innovation' (across three generations, mainly focussing on traditional and more recent British Bengali musical heritage, from the 1970s-80s).
