Mothering a Muslim / Nazia Erum. - xvi, 221 pages ; 25 cm
Includes bibliographical references.
"Talking to over a hundred children and their parents across twelve cities, what Nazia uncovers is deeply troubling. She heard stories of rampant bullying of Muslim children in many of the country's top schools, of six-year-olds being hit by their classmates because of their faith, of religious segregation in classrooms and of anxious Muslim parents across the country who monitor their children's dress, speech and actions to protect them. In Mothering a Muslim, Nazia finally lifts the veil on this taboo subject, one that is spoken of only in whispers. Urgent, gripping and heartbreaking, this is essential reading for any Indian parent."-- Book jacket.
