Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper uses the Sikh Heritage Museum, a National Historic Site Gur Sikh Temple, the oldest still standing gurdwara in the western hemisphere, in Abbotsford, BC, as a living site of Sikh story telling. The author shares her journey of transformation over the past decade, based on stories and archives that have emerged reminding us that histories of racism, including that of the ku klux klan continue to be relegated to the margins in the name of white nostalgia. Sikh story telling then, through truth and radicalism, is a reclaiming of histories that are nuanced, and can move communities forward.
