Often and mistakenly reduced to a country, Africa is the most complex land on Earth. Though comprised of various races, tribes, languages, and traditions, the continent is a nation all on its own. It is in this collection, Chigbo Ugwuoke captures the essence of Africa’s unique composition. Though native to Nigeria, Chigbo expresses deep concern for the whole of Africa. Through narrative poetry he brings awareness to tragedies that have befallen Africa. Through figurative poetry he paints the picture of her delicate beauty and deep sorrow. While paying homage to the common but integral individuals in Africa, he calls the people of Africa to action against political corruption and division.As an African American, reading A New Africa has given me another level of insight into the land of my ancestors. It has provided a mirror as my complexity reflects that of the great land called Africa.-Nicole A. SchmidtAuthor of Inside a Young Soul
