This book explores discrimination against Northeast Indians, who
have been frequently stereotyped as backwards, anti-national,
anti-assimilationist, immoral, and relegated to low paying
positions across retail, hospitality, telecommunications and
wellness industries. The contributions draw on interviews with
individuals who have migrated to other Indian cities and towns to
find jobs and escape from native poverty, and provide a critical
examination of the intersections between power, privilege and
racial hierarchy in India today. The chapters cover a variety of
perspectives including social movements and activism, history,
policy, youth studies and gender studies. With a focus on
marginalised communities, and the effects and persistence of racial
inequality in a South Asian context, this collection will be an
important contribution to critical race studies, public policy,
human rights discourse, and social work.
