Oct. 1st, 2007 12:47 pmWhile reading about British Cultural Identities some more I found a map showing Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Jews and Buddhists 1993, and it has a little Buddhist temples and monasteries symbol right where I live. I googled and found a reference. And yet it is news to me.
... I so don't live in this town. My body does, but my brain is somewhere in orbit.
Also today, reading about the history of Welsh language. Which is now interesting to me. Because, you know, Torchwood.
The fact it was previously uninteresting despite being, you know, there... kinda embarrassing.
Book reckons Cardiff has had long standing black, Chinese and Indian communities since the nineteenth century.
Also Elizabeth I made a law to try and keep black people out cause of thinking there were too many moving here.
History class leaves a lot out.
