Abstract:

The children and grandchildren of South Asian migrants to the UK are livingout British identities which go largely unrecognized, as dominant voicesboth inside and outside their communities seek to foreground and hold inplace alternative positionings of them as primarily Sikhs, Hindus andMuslims or Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis or Panjabi, Gujarati,Hindi, and Urdu speakers. This book emphasizes their everyday low-keyBritishness, albeit a Britishness with new inflections. It is thissensibility that marks them as 'Brasians'.
