Abstract
This is the introductory chapter. Therefore, it outlines the philosophical logic that underpins the theoretical assumptions of the project, as well as the methodological framework of the book. It points out that there are no research studies that investigate and theorise the lived experience of Africans in either Australia or New Zealand via what Goldberg (Ethnic and Racial Studies 32(7):1271–1282, 2009) terms relational racisms. It justifies the use of the relational account of racism by arguing that the power of relationality lies in its ability to offer a cartography of reiterative impacts of racism, its discursive transformations and redirections (Goldberg, Ethnic and Racial Studies 32(7):1271–1282, 2009).
