This book is about the struggles of female and male descendants of
Indian indentured migrants in Trinidad in the first half of the
twentieth century, each desiring to preserve some aspects of the
gender system brought from India between 1845 and 1917, which were
important to their continued definition of ethnic identity and
community in Trinidad. At the same time the situation of migration
allows for challenges to the caste system of Hinduism and, for
women and some men, new opportunities to confront the more
restricting aspect of Indian patriarchy which followed them across
the seas from India.
