Review Quotes:
"What does it mean to be forced out of one's home within the African continent because of age, climate change, disease, identity, or sexual orientation? Who provides the healing? What is our responsibility? In this volume, Abdul Karim Bangura and the contributors provide answers to these questions through their rigorous research, forcing us to ask ourselves what it means to be human!" --Mueni wa Muiu, Professor of Political Science, Winston Salem State University, USA
"This book has a refreshing orientation with respect to migration. The contributors provide both a theoretical perspective and practical approach to migration, helping us to understand this issue better by analyzing cases across Africa." --Walter Hill, Professor of Political Science, St. Mary's College of Maryland, USA
