It seeks to investigate the structure and modalities of the broader social contexts and parameters underpinning how these identities are constructed and rationalized. The identities African immigrants depict are transnational, resilient, enterprising, altruistic, and based upon a yearning desire for economic opportunities and total incorporation in global affairs. Their migratory identities are structured to finding solutions to ameliorate the myriad of pressing issues facing Africa. 606 $aTransnationalism$zAfrica 606 $aAfrican diaspora 606 $aEthnicity$zAfrica 607 $aAfrica$xEmigration and immigration 615 0$aTransnationalism 615 0$aAfrican diaspora. 615 0$aEthnicity 676 $a305.896 700 $aArthur$b John A.$f1958-$01600084 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813588403321 996 $aAfrican diaspora identities$93950199 997 $aUNINA
