SUMMARY
"Tejaswini Niranjana listens to the tones and echoes of Indianness in the Caribbean and elaborates a SouthSouth genealogy that obligates us to reconceive the cultural geography of modernity. From the 'moral status of the coolie woman' in British colonialist and Indian nationalist discourses to the figure of the 'Indian woman' in Afro-Trinidadian calypso, Hindi cinema musics, and female chutney-soca performances, she pronounces the gendered rhythms of popular music as subaltern cultural politics."-Lisa Lowe, author ofImmigrant Acts: On Asian American Cultural PoliticsNiranjana, Tejaswini is the author of 'Mobilizing India Women, Music, And Migration Between India And Trinidad', published 2006 under ISBN 9780822338420 and ISBN 0822338424.
