This insightful book explores the experiences of African students in the U.S. It adopts a phenomenological, inductive approach. As human beings, we are uniquely bound to our stories, memories, and histories. Using the personal stories of eleven African students, the book confronts the question, what is it like for Africans to detach from their heritage and home, and become students in the U.S.?
Being an African Student will aid in making curricula more effective and attentive to the needs of international students. The reader will see the connection between their own stories, the students' stories, and larger stories of culture and humanity.
Samson Akinloye Omotosho is an Adjunct Professor of Nursing at Coppin State University and the Program Director for Optimum Health Systems, an outpatient mental health clinic and rehabilitation center for children and adults.
