A primary purpose for writing this book is to reveal highlights of the kinds of struggles people of certain origins usually encounter when they migrate to developed countries such as the United States of American. The story shows how practices of discrimination, prejudice, segregation, and institutional racism, and other employment mal practices can adversely affect the lives of honest, hardworking, legal migrants as well as their descendants. This is a true story about a refugee from Africa who needed more than determination and perseverance to endure hardship, discrimination, segregation, and racist practices in order to properly support his family.
