It attempts to understand the postcolonial condition from the perspective of migrants inserting themselves in the West. Using a postcolonial lens on difference, immigrant narratives about experience of becoming settled in Canada are analysed as constructions of ethnic postcolonial resistance and accommodation. The article reveals how immigrants negotiate with being stigmatized as different. The agency of migrants is emphasized while paying attention to the discursive limits in the new space where they try to re-establish themselves. It explores how immigrants read into the inconsistencies of the Canadian multicultural story as their own experiences contradict it. Their challenge and counter-narratives are part of the reconstruction of migrant postcolonial history that allows them to normalize their presence in Canada and to suture their history to the Canadian one. Collective experiences and knowledge among immigrants in the local space are important in supporting their challenge to neo-liberal multicultural and exclusive national discourses.","PeriodicalId":135037,"journal":{"name":"Crossings: Journal of Migration and Culture","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116659859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cultural factors such as the law of izzat remain limited in theoretical frameworks, making the subject only partially visible. South Asian cultural identity is addressed through language, music, clothing and memory; each contributing to the visibility of the South Asian female on-screen. Using the popular British Asian film by Gurinder Chadha Bhaji on the Beach (1993) to address the current visibility of the subject, the seemingly simplistic identity of the South Asian female is questioned. The presence of'narrative ruptures' contained within some of the material addressed combined with theoretical understandings of the diaspora produce a more nuanced understanding of the subject. Through postcolonial, film and cultural studies, an analysis of visibility has recognized the need to integrate cultural laws such as izzat into readings of British Asian and South Asian film. By illustrating the codes that have limited the subject's visibility, the once invisible will become visible and a new theoretical understanding gained.
