“…In their later work, Morrill and colleagues (1980) emphasized that their model was rooted in ecological development theory: In this regard, their treatment of primary and associational groups was particularly reminiscent of Bronfenbrenner's (1979) microsystems and exosystems respectively. However, even with recent resurgence of ecological approaches to development (Renn, 2003(Renn, , 2004Renn & Arnold, 2003), developmental ecology's limited representation in the student development literature (Evans et al, 2010) suggests that current practitioners would have trouble applying a theory-to-practice model with underlying ecological assumptions without a more detailed explication of the process involved.…”

“…For some that realise that identity can be fluid, forever changing and evolving and in their control, they assert their ethnic pride politically and by staying connected to their respective ethnic communities in the USA and abroad [20]. The emerging research highlighting the diversity in racial ethnic identity tends to focus on black-white mixed race couples and their children because they fall on the extreme ends of America's racial hierarchy, whites being on top and blacks being on the bottom [21][22][23]. As stated before skin color is a great predictor of how the outside world classifies a person racially.…”

“…The social structural approach posits that teachers and administrators in many school systems across the USA hold negative stereotypes of African Americans and relate to the students in ways that signal to the child society assumes you are not going to succeed. Given that these theories hold true, African-born American children will need a buffer that can be acquired through the knowledge of these situations, history of racial relations in the USA, and positive affirmation for continued success from adolescents to adulthood in all sectors of their lives [22][23][24][25]27]. …”

Through individual and group testimonies from newly arrived, 1.5 and second generation sub-Saharan Africans (For this study sub-Saharan African refers to the countries located under Northern African countries, for example, Egypt and Morocco and, includes South Africa. There are over 50 countries represented by this region; however, the most populous groups from this region in Africa in the USA are Nigerian, Ethiopian, Kenyan, Liberian, Ghanaian, Cape Verdean, South African, and Somalian.), the diversity and complexity linked to their migration and integration experiences in the USA reveal that there is a gendered and generational element to their self identity. These elements are compounded by perceptions of being African American in a racialized society and deciding whether or not to stay connected to Africa, a continent that needs their financial, political, and social resources accumulated in the USA These “new” African Americans expand the definition of blackness in the USA. Many have created a transnational relationship to Africa and the USA, which provides important implications for Africa’s potential “brain gain” as well as socioeconomic, infrastructural, and political development.
