About this Event
The event delves into the complexities of masculinity, mental health, and cultural identity among young Bangladeshi-Canadian men. The author employed an anthropological, intersectional approach to explore the interplay of globalization ideologies, Islamic values, and diasporic experiences in shaping masculine trajectories for Muslim immigrant youth of South Asian origins. The presentation unravels historical trauma, parental pressures, and societal expectations that contribute to the deteriorating mental well-being for these youth. With a unique insider perspective and rich empirical data, the event aims to fill a crucial gap in the literature by offering invaluable insights for scholars and Canadians exploring the nuances of migration, ethnicity, gender, and psychological resilience.
This book launch is co-presented with the York Centre for Asian Research.
