- New York, NY (1888PressRelease) March 21, 2022 - In the book, Blues under the Grey Swedish Skyline, the author introduces his readers to a family of African immigrants that lives in Uppsala, Sweden. Uppsala is famous throughout the world, for being both a university city and having a picturesque landscape. When Kore, a major character in the book gains political asylum, in Sweden, he is overwhelmed with feelings of happiness. He would soon discover that his new home poses intractable new challenges that his family, consisting of himself, his wife, and their two children, must overcome.
What happens to Kore who after having internalized all important societal values required for his integration into the Swedish mainstream society, yet he finds himself locked outside of it? Is it the way he practices his culture which hinders his integration? Or is it the structural discrimination that he faces which has something to do with it? This is not a black and white issue. The reality must be somewhere in between. Read the book to find out what in real life that absence of integration means to Kore`s family in its quest to find a meaningful life in an environment that is as strange to them as they are to it.

He follows with keen mind issues dealing with discrimination, integration, and multiculturalism, all of which are factors, whose social, economic, and political implications pose multiple challenges to different actors, ranging from policymakers and academics to citizens of any country in the West. He lives in both Tanzania and Sweden.
