This article looks into the realities of Indian middle-class working mothers in contemporary Malaysia, as they negotiate their identity in a rapidly globalizing society. In Malaysia, the national agenda calls for middle-class Malaysian women to enter the workforce and produce healthy families: this is the national image of “successful” working motherhood. However, in most public discussion about this image, Indian middle-class working mothers have remained absent. This is in line with their mutedness in dominant public culture. In this paper, I will explore Indian women’s everyday middle-class interactions as they negotiate the gendered spaces of education, work, and the home. Women’s lived realities reveal how they struggle to carve out an identity amidst the intersection of gendered and racial politics. By exploring the quotidian journey of Malaysian Indian middle-class working mothers, I challenge national narratives where they have remained silent.
