The Changing Identity of South Asian Guyanese

During our many Christmastime conversations, the question of my graduate thesis came up. Ben, in an urge to experiment with self-publishing and happening to know I had a fairly polished hundred pages, put this together back in 2008 and made it available via Lulu. He designed the cover art and wrote the blurbage as well (basically, everything required to make it accessible).

Mom Bengfort, in particular, advocated for making sure that this paper was available to those interested in the topic. If I do say so myself (and definitionally, I do), while it isn’t groundbreaking anthropology or breathtaking Shakespeare, the extensive bibliography would be very useful to any student of Guyanese anthropology, sociology, history, or literature.

In any case, if you’re here at Bengfort.com, statistically you are here for the cookbook. So this is, in essence, a classic “But wait! There’s more!” Consider this your invitation to sit down with a nice spread of dahl, roti, pumpkin, and armchair anthropology.
