What We Inherit x City Book Room
βWhat is an Indian person supposed to look like?β
For Indian women in Singapore, questions that cast doubt on their identities are all too common. Expressions of identity that go against stereotype are often met with confusion and uncertainty β for example, when the race on their IC isnβt βIndianβ, or when they study Chinese in school instead of Tamil.
Join us with three authors from What We Inherit as they unpack their personal essays about Indian womanhood. Look forward to revelations about identities that fall outside of CMIO markers, feelings of displacement and writing as catharsis.
