The New York Times reports that since 1990 more Africans have
voluntarily relocated to the United States and Canada than had been
forcibly brought here before the slave trade ended in 1807. The key
reason for these migrations has been the collapse of social,
political, economic, and educational structures in their home
countries, which has driven Africans to seek security and
self-realization in the West. This lively and timely collection of
essays takes a look at the new immigrant experience. It traces the
immigrants' progress from expatriation to arrival and covers the
successes as well as problems they have encountered as they
establish their lives in a new country. The contributors, most
immigrants themselves, use their firsthand experiences to add
clarity, honesty, and sensitivity to their discussions of the new
African diaspora.
