Today I am going to talk about the Anglo Indian community living in Bow Barracks Kolkata. They are the descendants of British and Indians who married during the colonization period in Kolkata. This is the last big community of them and we are going in to check it out.

Carlos, you did a fine job on this video. It brought back fond memories for me (a native Anglo-Indian from Calcutta) now married to an Argentinian/Italian and living in Canada. Love your videos as they are so honest, and you are so tolerant of all cultures and food and you are not afraid to try anything. Happy travels and blogging - be safe!

Wow! Here I am sitting in Chicago, it’s been 12 years since I left Calcutta and I just came across your videos today! Some of them are just a few weeks old! It’s like seeing Calcutta through your lens, and remembering what I love about the place! You are spot on when you said that Calcutta doesn’t like to change, it remains the same! Yes there are lot of things to improve, but the love for football, biriyani, gulab jamun, fish, sense of community and occasionally a little surprise of a home made ginger wine from the amazing Anglo indian community makes me remember my childhood ! The best thinks about the place is the diversity ! Thank you and your channel needs to get to a million subscribers fast !!

Bow Barracks was originally a housing set up for American soldiers stationed in British occupied Kolkata during the period of WW2. The American soldiers didn't want to live there (i forget why) and then it was passed down later as residence for the Anglo Indians. Thank you for covering this important part of history.

English is not our Mothers Tongue. But we can try to speak English. If anybody can not speak properly his or her Mothers Tongue it will be shamefull but if anyone can not speak English properly where is funny on that? Try to respect people you British Bulldog. It is DD BANGLA not DD ENGLISH. It does not mean that I hate English language.I love English language and always try to learn it. But it does not mean that I should feel shy if I can not speak or write English perfectly. If a German don't know English he never fell Shy, Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel can not speak English. If a Russian can not speak English properly never feel shy, Russian President Vladimir Putin don't know English. If a Spanish speaking person can't speak English properly he never fell shy, Leo Messi can't speak English. If a Portuguese speaking person cannot speak English he never feel shy. Neymar Jr. can't speak English. If a French can't speak English he never feel shy. If a Chinese can't speak English he never feel shy. Then why does Indians? They does feel shy because of the status symbol made by the society of two hundred years slavery. Fuck this status hypocrisy.

im a chinese indian and i grew up in bow barracks in the 4th unit ground floor facing Nalanda Udyan Park but left 58 years ago with my family to canada. at the time there werent any Christmas event like its now (at least i dont recall), nice that they are doing that. as im getting on age I been searching for my roots online but had no idea the neighborhood i grew up in was famous, they even made a movie there. I've seen a few videos but i must say your coverage is the best, interviewing the vendors, the residents and even going into their home has brought back alot of memories. i now want to go back for a visit and enjoy Christmas there. many thanks.

Anglo Indian in the US. I am proud of my roots. My family is from Calcutta and Asansol. Did my dna test and I am the perfect blend of the term Eurasian…that term was coined for us initially. My great grand parents worked in the coal mines and also served in the British military. Have photos of great-great-great-great-grandfather (early 1800s) in Lahore. He was a merchant with his English wife. Then his kiddo, who all the boys in the family resemble. He was in the military. Looking at all the old photos from the 1800s and trying to understand how they lived their lives away from their home and everything they knew. They went on a wild and unknown adventure and now we have roots all over the globe. Thank you for this!

@TheCryptoOptimist 2 месяца назад

I have yet to see Calcutta but if I ever I do get a chance post COVID to travel to India in the future I will put it on our family's itenary. We emmigrated to Australia from our home town in Bangalore. Your story about home made wines took me down memory lane to some cherished memories of my dad. He was a champ at making home made grape wine, sherry, OT which is a type of ginger wine etc. Christmas cake and pudding, rose cookies, sweet coconut puffs, coconut sweet or burfi, kul kuls, Dhol Dhol frosted diamond cuts and halwas were some of the traditional regular home made favourite sweets in Eurasian and Anglo Indian homes at Christmas time. Carol singing was yet another cherished Anglo Indian activity during the Christmas season. Thanks again for bringing us a snippet of life in a community that has and continues to cherish its traditions over the years. Enjoyed your post. Cheers and Good Luck. 🍀 Geraldine Gonsalvez

Its been more than 30 years now, me born and living in India and haven't even traveled 10% of it. Completely unaware of Bow barrack community until I saw your videos. You are lucky to have visited there. And thank you for exploring India and acknowledging it in nicest possible way. Your videos are addictive, unedited and simple and relaxing.

The buildings looks like British architecture, the lady that was interviewing you was speaking in bangla. So it looks like everyone in Calcutta speaks Bengali correct me if I’m wrong.

@kakalimukherjee3297 3 года назад

Most. A small community of North Indians, mostly businessmen, speak Hindi. But almost all Calcuttans understand Hindi, and speak a little as well, because of the closeness of the Hindi and Bengali languages

@georgelalthansrenthlei2587 3 года назад

Remind of my school days....i am from Northeast India, I used to have lots of Anglo Indian friends from this community, now most of them reside in US , they used talk so much about their community, how it was build and history and stuff

@sohamdasgupta2270 4 года назад

Hey, I have been following your videos for quite some time now. Please do visit Park Street by taking a Metro to Park Street Station in Kolkata, as you are here just at the correct time for the Christmas celebrations. You will surely feel the Christmas vibes over there.

I'm from northeast, Mizoram. I've lived almost 6 years in north India. Whenever I go home to Mizoram, on reaching Kolkata, I use to feel as if I've arrived home.

Hey Carlos from your English Subscriber brilliant video mate, the Bow Barracks Anglo-Indian community is a proud one, not many people could capture what you did. Though i will say this most of their British ancestors weren't military leaders or engineers, but blue-collar workers who settled in India for a better life. Their food and drink reflects their Anglo roots, sausages that looked like cumberlands and ginger wine love it, can't wait to go to Bow Barracks and Drink wine, eat BBQ and go to Anglican midnight mass with my Anglo-Indian brothers and sisters.
