Author Information

Margaret Mishra is a scholar of colonial and feminist history whose work centers on the lived experiences of marginalized communities under empire. With a focus on Indian indentured women in the Fiji Islands, her research draws on minor history and interdisciplinary frameworks spanning postcolonial, subaltern, and gender studies. Through meticulous archival excavation and critical analysis, she challenges dominant narratives of victimhood and foregrounds stories of resistance, resilience, and survival. Her work is both a scholarly intervention and a personal homage to her own ancestral lineage of indenture.
