Ignoring Authentic African Literature Means Ignoring Africans
Romano, Carlin
Chronicle of Higher Education, v52 n17 pB13 Dec 2005

African writers, however have to struggle to get recognized in America due to their culture and other racial and social differences, hence suggesting that efforts should be made to give authentic African literature its due.
