Zusammenfassung: | "Care for America's growing elderly population is increasingly provided by migrants, and the demand for health care labor is only expected to grow. Because of this health care crunch and the low barriers to entry, new African immigrants have adopted senior care as a niche employment sector, funneling their friends and relatives into this occupation. In The New American Servitude, Cati Coe demonstrates how these workers often struggle to find a sense of political and social belonging. They are regularly subjected to racial insults and demonstrations of power-- and effectively turned into servants-- at the hands of other members of the care worker network, including clients and their relatives, agency staff, and even other care workers. Low pay, a lack of benefits, and a lack of stable employment, combined with a lack of appreciation for their efforts, often alienate them, so that many come to believe that they cannot lead valuable lives in the United States. While jobs are generally understood to be a means of acculturating new immigrants, African care workers do not tend to become involved or politically active. Many plan to leave rather than putting down roots in the US. Offering revealing insights into the dark side of a burgeoning economy, The New American Servitude highlights serious implications for the future of labor and justice in the care work industry" -- Publisher. |

Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed February 22, 2019). "Care for America's growing elderly population is increasingly provided by migrants, and the demand for health care labor is only expected to grow. Because of this health care crunch and the low barriers to entry, new African immigrants have adopted senior care as a niche employment sector, funneling their friends and relatives into this occupation. In The New American Servitude, Cati Coe demonstrates how these workers often struggle to find a sense of political and social belonging. They are regularly subjected to racial insults and demonstrations of power-- and effectively turned into servants-- at the hands of other members of the care worker network, including clients and their relatives, agency staff, and even other care workers. Low pay, a lack of benefits, and a lack of stable employment, combined with a lack of appreciation for their efforts, often alienate them, so that many come to believe that they cannot lead valuable lives in the United States. While jobs are generally understood to be a means of acculturating new immigrants, African care workers do not tend to become involved or politically active. Many plan to leave rather than putting down roots in the US. Offering revealing insights into the dark side of a burgeoning economy, The New American Servitude highlights serious implications for the future of labor and justice in the care work industry" -- Publisher.
