In this groundbreaking study, Cati Coe explores the complex experiences of African immigrant home care workers in the United States, revealing the ways in which they are excluded and marginalized in the workplace. Through a nuanced examination of the intersection of race, ethnicity, and politics, Coe sheds light on the struggles of these workers to find a sense of belonging and belonging in their adopted country. With a focus on the relationships between African immigrant home care workers and their clients, this book offers a critical analysis of the power dynamics at play in the healthcare industry. By highlighting the ways in which racial and ethnic identities shape the experiences of these workers, Coe's work challenges readers to rethink their assumptions about the nature of care and the politics of belonging in America. This thought-provoking book is a valuable contribution to the field of anthropology and will be of interest to scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand the complexities of the US healthcare system.
