Summary: This book presents plurality and globalization concepts from African perspectives, using Yoruba and a few other African cultures as examples. From discourses on New World and twenty-first century migration, trans-nationalism, slavery, to identity and African Islamic cultural performances, the book adopts discourse methodology that is rooted in both African cultural rhetoric and Western analytical traditions. It discusses travel, exile, and the 21st Century pluralistic world and the search for cultural acceptance by immigrants in their newly adopted homes and native communities they left behind.
