This is a highly lucid important transdisciplinary conversation on the challenges faced by asylum seekers and refugees. It highlights how COVID-19 intersects with many aspects of migrant lives, and provides careful analyses on migration and the intricate politics of belonging in post-apartheid South Africa. The authors stress the need for solutions that protect African migrants. - Daniel Tevera, Extraordinary Professor, Department of Geography, Environmental Studies and Tourism, University of the Western Cape, South Africa This book delves into fresh scholarly approaches and insights with a view to understand the challenges of exclusion, victimization and marginalization faced by African migrants as they wade through very unprecedent times. It captures, with intellectual rigour and delicacy, troubling issues such as the politics of belonging and complexities of socio-cultural idiosyncrasies as well as the invisibility of refugees with disabilities, vulnerability, discrimination and power struggles. The book is a breaking and timely contribution to migration and refuge studies in South Africa. - Monwabisi K. Ralarala, Dean of Faculty of Arts and Humanities, University of the Western Cape, South Africa
