| Long abstract | In this narrative, the author shares her painful journey, having left a young family—husband, and children (two and a half months, four, and two years old), to pursue a PhD in the UK. Her encounters with racism interweaved with feelings of guilt for leaving her family paint a picture of precariousness informed by identity markers of race, sex and class. |
