Imagined Malaysia

About Us
Hello there! We at Imagined Malaysia are eight very enthusiastic nerds who need your help to spread the love for history to everyone. Why? Because as the late civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “We are not makers of history. We are made by history.”
Imagined Malaysia is a nonprofit, nongovernmental collective. Your donations through Patreon will help us make our aspirations for a re-imagined Malaysia come true.

What do we do?

1. Our workshops empower people: We’ve developed two vigorous workshop series - Historical Materialism and People’s Resistance. These highly affordable, incredibly intensive workshops hope to provide and expose everyone to the tools to realize their full potential as intellectuals in a developing society. With your support, we can ensure the sustainability of these programmes and aid the personal development of our participants.
2. Our talks connect people: Our speakers’ series Malaysia Before Malaysia places emphasis on the enrichment of public debate on issues such as human rights, economics, politics and culture through the injection of historical narratives. Our free talks provide a platform for conversation between people from all walks of life to learn from each other and realize the importance of history in shaping our perceptions of national concerns. Your donation will make sure we are able to carry on organizing these talks and facilitate brilliant exchanges without financial constraints.
3. Our writings educate people: With our upcoming quarterly Imagined Malaysia Review, we strive to democratize intellectual discourses in the most accessible way possible. This also provides an opportunity for others to share their thoughts and knowledge on all matters relating to society and its history. With your support, we can keep producing publications that will educate a wider audience.
