My Village to New York

My Village to New York is a factual narrative from the perspective of a visiting immigrant. From the visa procedures and interview to the long trans-continental flight to JFK Airport, every moment and experience is vividly captured. The book also highlights life on the streets of New York, eateries, malls, and landmarks.A special section titled "Reflections" discusses topics such as the DVC lottery scam, fast and false lifestyles, lost opportunities, and human relationships. Blending humor with insightful observations, the author also explores diaspora funding, Barack Obama's Africa Programme, and the challenges faced by resident immigrants. The book presents America not merely as the "world's policeman," but as a democratic and progressive nation striving for human development and endeavour.
