It de-naturalises the commonplace assumptions and imaginations about the cultures and identities of African diaspora communities, and probes the relevance and usefulness of identity markers such as country of origin, nationality, ethnicity, ethnic/heritage language and mother tongue. Current cultural frames of identity representation have so far failed to capture the complexities of everyday lived experiences of transnational individuals and groups. Therefore by drawing on fresh concepts and recent empirical evidence, this book invites the reader to revisit and rethink the vocabularies that we use to look at identity categories such as race, culture, language, ethnicity, nationality, and citizenship, and introduces a new language nesting model of diaspora identity. This book will be of great interest to all students of migration, diaspora, African and Australian studies. 606 $aAfrican literature 606 $aAfrican languages 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aApplied linguistics 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aRace 606 $aAfrican Literature 606 $aAfrican Languages 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aApplied Linguistics 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aRace and Ethnicity Studies 615 0$aAfrican literature. 615 0$aAfrican languages. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aApplied linguistics. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aRace. 615 14$aAfrican Literature. 615 24$aAfrican Languages. 615 24$aSociolinguistics. 615 24$aApplied Linguistics. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aRace and Ethnicity Studies. 676 $a305.896/094 686 $aLAN009050$aSOC007000$aSOC056000$2bisacsh 700 $aNdhlovu$b F$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01790959 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956617503321 996 $aBecoming an African Diaspora in Australia$94327806 997 $aUNINA
