ABOUT THIS BOOK
Contemporary Immigrant Writing and Black America addresses how minoritized communities in the United States find each other, make sense of each other, and come together to confront the many guises of racism and racist practices. This book probes the life and writings of Korean immigrants, Indian immigrants, and various African immigrants for insights into the ways that they experience and express their new lives in the United States. More specifically, this book shows how immigrant communities come to understand their relationship with the Black American community; the relation that is key to finding their own voice about race, culture, and power in the United States.
