About this Book:

This book shades light on how cultural collision has become a huge challenge to the way children of immigrant parents born in foreign countries such as the United States of America get caught up in a cultural web. Looking at the mainstream culture and its dominance in all facets of life in America, it behooves the immigrant African parents to begin on time in the inculcation and orientation of thier cultural discipline to their children before the dominant mainstream culture takes over.
