History of Afghanistan Lecture May 2 The history of Afghanistan in the 20th century will be the topic of a talk on Thursday, May 2, at Colby College by Munis Faruqui, visiting instructor of history at Bowdoin College.

It is open to the public and free of charge. Specializing in South Asian and Islamic history, Faruqui formerly served as project coordinator for Duke University's Oceans Connect, a program that studies trans-oceanic relationships between disparate societies. Faruqui has lectured on Asian history at numerous conferences and colleges and most recently served as chair of a panel at the Association of Asian Studies' annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
