I really enjoyed our panel. Didi's and my paper both explored the characteristics and "usefulness" of fictional and fabricated sources and emphasized that Jewish history is also part of German-American history. Many thanks to @drjanaweiss.bsky.social for providing the comment! #migrationhistory

A detail from CBL In 12.19, an illustrated manuscript, known as 'the birth of Kamrup' produced in Murshidabad, c. 1755-60. It shows five women in total, dressed in sumptuous, patterned clothing and extensive jewellery, in various seated and standing positions. The central figure, under an ornate arch, cradles a swaddled infant (Kamrup) and gazes down at him.

A group of people is gathered around a large installation table covered with colourful patterned tiles, engaging in an activity. The setting is the Migration Museum, with black-and-white historical photographs on the walls in the background. One woman in the foreground is smiling at the camera, while the others are intently looking at or touching the tiles on the table.
