Large-scale displacement - whether caused by war, state-related political or development projects, different forms of political violence, structural crisis, or even natural disasters - evokes many stereotyped assumptions about those forcibly displaced or emplaced. At the same time there is a problematic lack of attention paid to the diversity of actors, strategies and practices that reshape the world in the face (and chronic aftermath) of dramatic moments of violent dislocation.

While a number of African American leaders defended the sovereignty of a black republic whose fa...

But for Brenda, Laura's friend, arriving home from the USA and England to 'find herself', the adjustment is not so smooth...
