The heart of the diaspora domain is the cultural communities which serve at the fulcrum or the center of action exemplifying the vibrant nature and the continuities inherent in the formation of the diaspora. 606 $aAfrican diaspora 606 $aBlack people$xRace identity 607 $aAfrica$xEmigration and immigration 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAfrican diaspora. 615 0$aBlack people$xRace identity. 676 $a304.8096 701 $aArthur$b John A.$f1958-$0953993 701 $aTakougang$b Joseph$0976077 701 $aOwusu$b Thomas Y$g(Thomas Yaw),$f1961-$0976078 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463358403321 996 $aAfricans in global migration$92222863 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05890oam 2200589 450 001 9910154777903321 005 20230803200224.0 010 $a1-292-07104-4 035 $a(CKB)2670000000602468 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5174445 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5176732 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5833356 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5138952 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6399835 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5138952 035 $a(OCoLC)1024273677 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000602468 100 $a20210428d2014 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aEssentials of statistics /$fMario F.
