| | Amazon.com: Our Feet Walk the Sky : Women of the South Asian Diaspora: Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) |
 | | In the text, first- and second-generation women from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Burma, and Afghanistan comment on all aspects of their lives here and/or in the countries of their origin. |
 | | Many discuss the conflicts of growing up with one foot in each culture, while others speak bitterly about the harshness of their fathers and brothers and about the mothers and sisters who accept this as their due. |
 | | Because the issues addressed by women with a feminist consciousness are not necessarily the issues others want them to address, raising a "Third World child in an immigrant community within the First World" is shown to be a constant struggle. |
