Breaking the Silence: Domestic Violence in the South
Asian-American Community
 Breaking
the Silence is a multidisciplinary
anthology that brings together the voices of community
activists, scholars, artists,
and survivors to discuss the realities and effects of domestic
violence on America's South Asian community.
Breaking the Silence has been called “a
welcome addition to the literature on domestic violence” and
an “invaluable resource for the South-Asian American
community.” It has been profiled in resource bibliographies
by organizations, including the Asian & Pacific Islander
Institute on Domestic Violence; Michigan Resource Center
on Domestic and Sexual Violence; An Abuse, Rape and Domestic
Violence Aid and Resource Collection (aardvarc.org);
Oregon State Victim Assistance Academy; National Issues
Forums Institute; Domestic Abuse Women’s Network
(dawnonline.org);
and California Alliance Against Domestic Violence. Several
institutes of higher learning, including the University
of Maryland and Duke University, have also used Breaking
the Silence in women studies and social work courses.
