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 615 0$aAfrican diaspora. 615 0$aBlack people$xRace identity. 676 $a304.8096 701 $aArthur$b John A.$f1958-$01475503 701 $aTakougang$b Joseph$01492626 701 $aOwusu$b Thomas Y$g(Thomas Yaw),$f1961-$01492627 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786008403321 996 $aAfricans in global migration$93715234 997 $aUNINA
