Ndisco's Village Meeting for Africans - Society and Culture Clash. A discussion platform for immigrants in diaspora and homeland.
Africans, African Immigrants in Diaspora/Children born of Immigrant parents in Diaspora, as well as those Africans in the homeland - Society and Culture clashes. The positive and negative impacts to this dynamic phenomenon are discussed as a summary of a traditional village meeting discussion/summary.
The podcast discusses topics surrounding African immigrants and those Africans in the homeland - the youths, young adults, men and women, as they struggle with conflicts of the culture of their origin and the one(s) they also have to live with in the environment they now call home, in diaspora. The Africans at the homeland and issues pertaining to them are also discussed. The focus is heavily on the young adults.
The book "Raising an African Child in America: From the Perspective of An Immigrant Nigerian Mom.' by me, Dr. Marcellina Ndidi Oparaoji and other related articles, will be referenced a lot.
