Succeeding in a professional career can be challenging for anyone - how much more so for a Sikh woman facing the restrictions and traditions imposed by her family and culture and also the unjust limitations caused by racism at work. In her latest book, Satwant Rait narrates the inspiring life story of Ruby, a Sikh woman born in India who migrated to England.Ruby faced many challenges throughout her life, both cultural and institutional.

In achieving her academic and career success, Ruby was a pioneering woman in her Sikh community.

Ruby believed that to bring equality and equity, words are not enough and there is a need for firm commitment and meaningful actions.…
