Host communities relegate immigrants at the margins of their societies because of cultural and racial differences. The immigrants select in the corpus of strategies at their disposal to resist discrimination and negotiate their existence in the host nations. This book explores the strategies of resistance that immigrants employ, namely, cultural hybridity and cultural fixity with reference to the migrant author, Safi Abdi. Hybrid immigrants create a third space where they synthesize attributes of the two essentialist groups to survive in a polarized setting but conservative immigrants stick to their mother cultures. The researcher analyses hybridity and fixity and evaluates their merits and demerits. Immigrants who vacillate between the two strategies end up with psychological anomalies.
