Produktbeschreibung
The term Black Diaspora has been historically applied in particular to the descendants of the West and Central Africans who were enslaved and shipped to the Americas in the episode known as the Atlantic Slave Trade, with the largest population found in Brazil followed by the United States of America (USA). Details as mentioned are in figures shown in a chart in chapter eight. The word Diaspora, however, does not mean former slave or their descendant but all people living outside what is supposed to be their acknowledged place of origin. Thus black Diaspora refers to all black people outside the continent of Africa. This is a continent known only for bad things like slavery and slave trade, corruption and above all, political violence. There is no doubt that political upheavals in Africa have contributed to the numbers of Africans in the Diaspora in the name of refugees.
