June is a time where we remember many Shahids of the Sikh Panth, greatest among them our beloved Fifth Nanak, Guru Arjan Sahib ji, the Prince of Shahids. In this panel we will be discussing the role Shahidi plays in Sikhi, looking at it from the lens of Gurbani, history and Sikh culture. Why are Shahids so respected? Are they given too much importance or not enough? What can we, in the 21st century, gain from the example of Shahids? Join us for a live Q&A webinar as we explore these questions.
