Abstract

The notion ofblack and white is not something new to us. It is a known fact that Africans face several challenges in finding their place within any kind of sociehj. Like most immigrant groups, black migrants must adjust from being the majority in their home society to being a minorihj in the other society. Black migrants, unlike light-skinned migrants, also face an entirely different set of issues directly related to fitting in with other society. They must reconstruct and redefine their identihJ in terms of their present society's system of race relations and hierarchies. This research will make an attempt to study the present status of African migrants in north campus area. It also takes into account their perception of Delhi as a cihj, a place to migrate and live. Although even in the past they faced problems of racism and social exclusion, the recent incidents of discrimination and criminalization against African community have inspired the research to take place. An attempt has been made to take up their perception of Delhi as a place, as their new home and how they feel about the inclusion and exclusion within a new sociehJ.

德里作为宜居城市:追踪德里非洲人的种族隔离生活
非黑即白的概念对我们来说并不新鲜。众所周知,非洲人在任何一种社会中寻找自己的位置都面临着若干挑战。像大多数移民群体一样,黑人移民必须从在本国社会中占多数转变为在另一个社会中占少数。与浅色皮肤的移民不同,黑人移民还面临着与融入其他社会直接相关的一系列完全不同的问题。他们必须根据他们当前社会的种族关系和等级制度来重建和重新定义他们的身份。本研究将尝试研究北校区非洲移民的现状。这也考虑到了他们认为德里是一个cihj,一个移民和居住的地方。尽管在过去他们面临着种族主义和社会排斥的问题,但最近对非洲社区的歧视和刑事定罪事件激发了研究的进行。他们试图把德里作为一个地方,作为他们的新家,以及他们对新社会中包容和排斥的感受。
