Context #WebsiteBylineTimesHardeepMatharu "India's contribution to Britain's fight was not a merely philosophical one, but deeply practical - with more than one million Indian soldiers serving overseas to defend the British Empire during World War One, 74,000 of whom were killed. While soldiers from all across the Empire fought for the British, the Indian Army provided the largest number of troops. Indian soldiers started arriving on the Western Front from September 1914 and played a crucial role in the first battle of Ypres. ... Despite hopes that Britain would set India on the path to autonomy after the war, the opposite happened. A year later, in 1919, more than a thousand peaceful Indians were killed in the Jllianawala Bagh Massacre at the hands of General Dyer. India would not gain independence until 1947 - after serving and dying for the British in another world war." https://bylinetimes.com/2020/01/21/history-isnt-woke-its-the-best-defence-we-have-against-tyranny-and-hate/ #NarrativeWarWWI #BeliefTheismSikhism #IRLActorLaurenceFox #IRLFilmmakerSamMendes #2019_1917 #ToponymEuropeBelgiumVlaamsGewestYpres #1919_JallianwalaBaghMassacre #IRLHistoricalFigureReginaldDyer
