This book is about the founder's experiences starting and growing AWC, a social and professional networking group, over a period of six years. This was accomplished through events involving over four hundred attendees from twenty different African countries and the United States. Through experimentation and observation and implementing a set of guiding principles, the founder, Ms. Apaloo, was able to generate interests and build on what was most common. She relied on social norms in African immigrant communities in the United States in general and Minnesota in particular. Her story includes successes, missteps, and discoveries along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rita Jackson Apaloo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0998866113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780998866116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rita Apaloo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.46d","brand":"Rita Jackson Apaloo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441637175551,"sku":"9780998866116","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_76dc16d3-f0fe-43a6-b6eb-84bba3307167.jpg?v=1777192170","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/african-women-connect-rita-jackson-apaloo-9780998866116","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
