的封面 Vivek Bald: Bengali Harlem and the Lost Histories of South Asian America (ePUB)

Nineteenth-century Muslim peddlers arrived at Ellis Island, bags heavy with embroidered silks from their villages in Bengal.

Bald s history reveals cross-racial affinities below the surface of early twentieth-century America.
