African Minorities in the New World - African Studies
Toyin Falola
This book discusses the minority status of African immigrants in the New World by revisiting the concept of a 'new' African diaspora and its multiple implications for citizenship and immigration policy.
Marc Notes: Uncovering the reality that new African immigrants now represent a significant force in the configuration of American polity and identity, especially in the last 40 years, this title suggests that the resulting demographic shift is both welcome news and a matter of concern.
