Q 2 Stranger in the Village

question 2 of Stranger in the Village: i googled and found that Edward Franklin Frazier is a Howard graduate and leading American sociologist and scholar who created empirically based knowledge that was useful in solving problems affecting Black people. He wrote over 100 articles and nine books that challenged traditional research used in the social work field. i think the author created strangers and companions to make the reader feel what it is to be in a foreign land better (?) he talks about himself being a stranger in the village to show how different cultures are and how the way people responded to him village had totally different intentions and motivations than the way people in America did. what do you think?
