When Alexandria "Nur" Osborne applied for a short fellowship in Tanzania, she never imagined that 6 months would turn into a lifetime; and that the bush of East Africa would teach her about love, identity, and courage. The Black Mzungu is the vivid, candid account of how Nur, an African American Muslim expat, and Saidi, her Tanzanian husband whom she met during the fellowship, breathe life into a beautiful 92 acre homestead vacated four decades earlier by Saidi's family. Living there on the coastal southern region of Lindi, Tanzania, Nur's perceptions of how things "ought" to be are often challenged. From the dangerous natural wildlife to locals who view them as outsiders, she and Saidi must learn to navigate both natural and man-made obstacles. Still, through personal triumphs, they forge a way to give back to the land they now call home.

The Black Mzungu eBook Alexandria Osborne Reviews
good read for anyone wishing considering being an ex-pat, in a society totally different from
what you are comfortable with.
A must read for the year! The Black Mzungu, a fast=paced detailed account of An Amercian's trip abroad to Tanzania. It is interlaced with vignettes that are at times yet sincere,.. Get It Now!
Written in an engaging, conversational style. It's like listening to stories over lunch with the author.
Thanks for publishing! I learned a lot about Tanzania that I didn't know!
The author is a long time friend and coworker, so it was very interesting to read about this amazing adventure in her new life. The tone is light and funny at times, but also honest and raw at others. The imagery is so vivid, it was easy to visualize the vast beauty of the land. Amazing circumstances that she is experiencing and adapting to; things that we take so much for granted. A great read; highly recommend.
Interesting information on living in Africa
What an adventure! I like this not only because I know Nur but because it still amazes me that a born and raised New Yorker actually ended up in Tanzania and loving it. It's not that the country with it's ocean views and sunsets aren't beautiful, it's just that the animals she encounters are intimidating to say the least. But the book is an exciting journey that took courage, patience, and strength. I admire her tenacity. I could never do it. May Allah bless her.
