1971 War Survivor Speaks: Asish Sarkar’s Untold Story of Hope & Horror
August 2025 55 views 02 Min 18 Sec
As a teenager in 1971, Asish Sarkar navigated chest-deep waters, evaded gunfire, and crossed a raging river under the gaze of Pakistani soldiers — all in his desperate bid to reach safety in India during the Bangladesh Liberation War. His memoir, Under the Shadow of Death, captures not only the peril and trauma of those days but also the quiet strength that sustained him. In this conversation, Sarkar reflects on the memories that shaped his resilience, the cultural roots he continues to nurture in the diaspora, and his belief that hope is the only lifeline when the world around you falls apart.
