Diary of a Daughter in Diaspora

"In her first book, Founas outlines her life experiences and views through poetry. As the daughter of Algerian immigrants, she depicts the realities of growing up in America in the diaspora – leaving her between two foreign lands. Founas also provides a unique glimpse into the glories and traumas of educating black and brown youth in Detroit. Diary of a daughter in diaspora is a collection of Founas's writing that spans four years."--Page 4 of cover.
