Rescuing African Marriages in the Diaspora

Book excerpt: African marriages in the Diaspora are in trouble. The divorce rate among Africans living out of Africa is increasing minute after minute leaving many African families in the pool of blood. The center can't hold any longer, and Africans are wondering how they can face the monster devastating their marriages in the Diaspora. Rescuing African Marriages in the Diaspora walks through the process of marriage from the time of just wondering whether to ask, "Will you marry me?" and "Should I say yes to him?", to the time you are married and living together. Rescuing African Marriages in the Diaspora navigates through the wild cultural wind that blows against African marriages in the Diaspora and anchors safely in the commitment to stay married until death do us part.
