Bengali Harlem and the Lost Histories of South Asian America
Author: Vivek Bald
Nineteenth-century Muslim peddlers arrived at Ellis Island, bags heavy with silks from their villages in Bengal. Demand for ?Oriental goods? took these migrants on a curious path, from New Jersey?s boardwalks to the segregated South. Bald?s history reveals cross-racial affinities below the surface of early twentieth-century America.
