All Dele Akinpelu ever dreamed about was a better life in a new country, but he never expected it to be a challenge that will test him to his very limits.Growing up in Lagos's musty and bustling city and born to struggling middle-class parents, Dele Akinpelu knew everything there was to know about life's struggle. Right from a young age, he'd seen and experienced the effect of poverty and worked hard to make sure he avoided the same fate.Excelling in school with flying colors and after years of intense studying in the university, Dele thought he had it figured out.But the world had harsher surprises in store for him.Thrown into the real world soon after he completed his university education, Dele soon found himself drowning and clutching desperately at straws.To make matters worse, the temptation from his more successful friends who made much from illegal and fraudulent activities was almost becoming overpowering. Still, luckily, he had the strength of character to resist it.His big break came after he got an offer to study at a university in America. Filled with hope for the future, he sold off all he had, solicited help from his family and friends, and moved to the United States of America to pursue his dreams.He had no idea he was about to experience the biggest shock of his life.Will he succeed despite the seemingly insurmountable odds stacked against him? Or will the harsh and unfair system break his spirit and his resolve?

In this book, Richard S. Kim examines the central role played by immigrants in the independence movement that sought to liberate Korea from Japanese colonization. Regarding Japanese rule as illegitimate, Koreans in and out of the Korean peninsula viewed themselves as a stateless people. Their independence activities had to be carried out from abroad, creating conditions for the emergence of a diasporic nationalism. Using English and Korean language sources, Kim traces how Koreans in the United States articulated visions of national sovereignty, drawing particularly on American political rhetoric and symbolism, and increasingly relied on U.S. state power to mobilize international support for their cause. Their efforts to establish an independent homeland necessitated their participation in civic and political activities in the United States, engaging in organizational activity that led to the development of an ethnic consciousness and paradoxically established them as an American ethnic group. Ultimately, Kim argues, homeland nationalism was central to the assimilation of Korean immigrants as American ethnics, even as they were denied U.S. citizenship.

Poet-activist Jimmy Baca immerses the reader in an epic narrative poem, imagining the experience of motherhood in the context of immigration, family separation, and ICE raids on the Southern border. Jimmy Santiago Baca sends us on a journey with Sophia, an El Salvadorian mother facing a mountain of obstacles, carrying with her the burden of all that has come before: her husband’s murder, a wrenching separation from her young son at the border, then rape and abuse at the hands of ICE, yet persevering: “I keep walking/carrying you in my thoughts,” she repeats, as she wills her boy to know she is on a quest to find him.

The population of African immigrants in the United States has grown rapidly over the past few decades. African Immigrants and the American Experience: Race, Anti-Black Violence, and the Quest for the American Dream by Wanjala S. Nasong’o, Imali J. Abala, and Kefa M. Otiso explores contemporary sub-Saharan African immigrants’ experiences with issues of race, ethnicity, and systemic violence in the United States. Each contributor within this volume dissects how these issues have impacted, and in many cases snuffed out, the immigrants’ quest for the fabled American dream. Divided into three sections, each chapter focuses on these main themes: race and anti-black violence, educational attainment among African immigrants in pursuit of the American dream, and African immigrant’s socioeconomics, health, and well-being. Through research and first-hand accounts, the contributors provide perspectives of what it truly means to be a sub-Saharan African immigrant in the United States.
