How did so many Punjabi immigrants come to find themselves behind
the wheels of so many New York City taxi cabs, and what do their
stories have to teach us about how immigrants must navigate life in
a new society? Diditi Mitra analyzes how race and class influence
settlement patterns in the United States, based on her extensive
interviews with 59 Punjabi taxi drivers, organizers of the New York
Taxi Workers Alliance, laywers who represent drivers in taxi
courts, owners of taxi fleets, and an official of the New York Taxi
and Limousine Commission. What emerges is an unprecedented
exploration into how society shapes the 'choices' made by
immigrants as they adapt to America.
