This book uncovers the reality that new African immigrants now
represent a significant force in the configuration of American
polity and identity especially in the last forty years. Despite
their minority status, African immigrants are making their marks in
various areas of human endeavor and accomplishments-from academic,
to business, to even scientific inventions. The demographic shift
is both welcome news as well as a matter for concern given the
consequences of displacement and the paradoxes of exile in the new
location. By its very connection to the 'Old African Diaspora, '
the notion of a 'New African Diaspora' marks a clear indication of
a historical progression reconnecting continental Africa with the
New World without the stigma of slavery. Yet, the notion of
trans-Atlantic slavery is never erased when the African diaspora is
mentioned whether in the old or new world. Within this paradoxical
dispensation, the new African diaspora must be conceived as the
aftermath of a global migrationcrisis.
