You may have seen Mr Ahluwalia on hit series like Some Girls, Unforgotten, Ripper Street and Peaky Blinders. He is also the author of the upcoming book Both Not Half: A Radical New Approach to Mixed Heritage Identity. This is a continuation of the insights he shared in his viral 2020 TEDx talk and the award-winning 2022 BBC One documentary Am I English?. His session will be an inspiring and engaging discussion of what it means to straddle two worlds and how we can foster more inclusivity and mutual understanding between cultures.

 

And there is more! Here is a look at who else will be joining us next month:
