Sender:  Nahian Iftekhar Senders Location:  Glasgow, UK  Receiver:  Minhazul Islam Receiver Location:  Rajshahi, Bangladesh Hey there! I hope things are going great for you and I’m really excited to write this letter to you! It’s been quite a while since I wrote a letter to anyone about anything so I apologize beforehand if there are a few mistakes here and there. Like many people born in the 90s, the last few years were quite challenging, mostly thanks to COVID-19, one of the deadliest pandemics in the 21 st century. We’ll talk about that soon. Before that, let me tell you a little about ‘pandemics’.

  Sender:  Rehaan Syed Senders Location:  Glasgow, UK  Receiver:  Nabil Hasan Receiver Location:  Rajshahi, Bangladesh Dear Nabil Hasan, I want to thank you for sharing your experience with the OSCH and the efforts you and your  team are making to preserve the disappearing languages and cultures of ethnic communities  in Bangladesh. Your story about visiting the Rai Para and the Munda community was very  touching, and it is heartening to know that people like you are working to preserve the diversity  of Bangladeshi culture. I was intrigued to hear about the challenges you faced during your trip, particularly the difficulty  in communicating with the people because of the lack of a written form of their languages. As  someone of the Bengali diaspora, it’s easy to forget how ethnically and linguistically diverse it  is there so it really surprised me to hear that the difference was so large that you were having  troubl...
