This volume examines the growing presence of Africans and people of African descent in the Nordic countries in relation to national identities, racism and diaspora. The book covers a broad range of topics such as the history of jazz in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, the existential predicament of being a mixed-race black Swedish woman, and Diasporas from the Horn of Africa in the Nordic countries.
