Bangladesh High Commission in Canada has opened “July Beyond Borders” on Friday — a stirring photo exhibition and documentary screening marking the first anniversary of the 2024 July Uprising.
The exhibition remains open to the public through to 5 August.
Held at the High Commission auditorium in Ottawa, the launch event gathered members of the Bangladesh diaspora and other Canadian guests.
The exhibition presents powerful visual testimony from a movement that began with students on the streets and grew into a nationwide cry for justice, dignity, non-discrimination, and emancipation.
What started as peaceful protests against a job quota system in mid-2024 became a sweeping uprising against state repression.
