Pav Singh, author of "1984 India's Guilty Secret", stops by to chat about his understanding and work on exposing the 1984 Genocide by the Indian Government towards the Sikhs.
Following the assassination of sitting PM Indira Gandhi by her two Sikh bodyguards (Bawant & Satwant Singh), the streets of Delhi and India erupted into violence. Murder, torture, and mass rape were officially chalked up as "communal riots", however in the years since illuminators like Pav, Jaswant Singh Khalra and Amnesty International describe an organised, well funded genocide.
Pav details his own personal memories of the time as a diaspora Sikh and the lengths at, which he went to too uncover this secret.
