RACISM: SHAMED, BLAMED The Targeted Punjabi Sikh Male: Health Care, Education leading the Charge
Above: The cartoon above is an exaggeration of the Punjabi male, however it is funny although the perception has never changed even while the community isn't like this very much. However, as the thesis examined points out, this behaviour is a result of segmented assimilation where the need to protect their masculinity over comes their motivation to do well in school as one factor observed. I validate that point further in this article. This is a UBC thesis interpretation and examination with the link below. Read this thesis below which this paper will examine and give you insight into these boys and why they fail, the stresses outside in their lives to be examined.
