Victim Discourse the Narrative of Indian Indenture Servitude

When we think of African Americans we

immediately associate them with slave history and when we think

of the indenture system, we associate it with the Asian migrant

workers of the nineteenth century British colonies. Neither of

these assumptions have been carefully clarified in the Indian

indenture scholarship. Although, indenture history of North

American colonies of Britain was extensively covered by

economic historians and migration studies, very little has been

discussed in regard to the broader historical background of the

indenture system within the scholarship of the Indian diaspora.
