This year marks the special 70th anniversary of the conversion of Dr Ambedkar and about 300,000 of his followers to Buddhism. We invite you to a whole-day event led by the People of Colour team, to come find out about and reflect on Dr Ambedkar's Dharma revolution. It should be an interesting, celebratory, and thought-provoking day featuring meditation, discussion opportunities, and an Indian-style puja led by Sanghanath (from Cambridge), all while being nourished by Peter's incredibly delicious cooking.
