Black Immigrants in North America is a collection of cutting-edge essays from renowned scholar Awad Ibrahim. He tackles difficult and challenging topics at a time when the political climate encourages some to engage in “immigrant bashing,” making the publication of this volume more urgent than ever.When dealing with immigration and immigrants, Black immigrants are hardly mentioned, particularly continental Africans. Ibrahim discussed and analyzes subjects ranging from Critical Race Theory to an economy of hospitality to the intersection of race, language, and identity. This book is destined to be a foundational text in a variety of courses dealing with race and immigration.
