Aprašymas

What does it mean to return home after leaving it behind? Is going "home" even possible?

Home can exist as a place of sanctuary and belonging, and at the same time evoke feelings of both comfort and discomfort, sameness and difference.

In an era defined by widespread migration, displacement, and forced movement, the question of what it means to be "home" has never been more urgent. In Going Home Again, editor Benjamin Maiangwa brings together a range of voices from across the African Diaspora to explore the shifting meanings of home and identity, as well as the emotional complexity of an enduring search for belonging. These essays follow African diasporic communities as they seek opportunity abroad and often find themselves caught between new worlds and the persistent pull of home.

A rich collection interrogating the meaning and (im)possibilities of "home," Going Home Again responds to our innate desire to belong to something, someone, or someplace, even if that place is one from which we are now excluded or estranged.
