All Work Is Cultural Work
Diasporic Haitian Women, Paid Labor, and Cultural Citizenship
All Work is Cultural Work examines how Haitian women living in diaspora find belonging through their work outside the home. Sociologist Nikita Carney uses an intersectional analysis to illuminate how the workplace serves as a central site in which Haitian women become raced, gendered, and classed within their new nations. Ultimately, Carney concludes, culture is indivisible from labor and labor from culture.
