African Clusters in India examines the discrimination and
stereotypes faced by the African migrants in India. It outlines the
narratives of the migrants and demonstrates how their 'African
identity' gets associated with drugs, prostitution, and
cannibalism. The book brings to the fore how the African migrants
experience racial profiling based on a conflated African identity,
and how this identity gets generalised irrespective of their
different nationalities and leads to social exclusion. This
monograph argues that the antagonistic urban environment
facilitates the formation of a pan-African identity as a response
to biases and stereotypes. It also explores the role of language,
culture, and politics of representation to show the process of
othering and exclusion in India. Drawing on lived experiences of
the migrants, the volume engages with the larger discourse of
globalization, liberalisation, and migration within the global
south. It will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of
critical race theory, ethnography, urban sociology, African
studies, and South Asian studies
