Africans in Diaspora: Challenges Of Living Abroad For Immigrants | One Slot | 25-04-23

The effects of the transatlantic slave trade from the 1500s to the 1800s did not just end with colonization, it is said to be responsible for the creation of the African diaspora. A term used to describe the dispersal of black people outside their places of origin on the African continent.
This Diaspora took millions of people from Western and Central Africa to different regions throughout the Americas and the Caribbean. An estimated 11 million Africans were dispersed from the Atlantic slave trade from Western Africa (e.g., Ghana, Nigeria) and Central Africa (e.g., Congo, Cameroon), and an estimated 10 to 80 million from the Arabic slave trade.
The trade-in African slaves impacted all continents and people of the Atlantic, hence diasporic communities were formed at every port of the triangular trade and new communities were formed in the locations where the slaves were dumped.

My man Chief Okpa, I am so proud of you for talking about what you know best. I couldn't stop listening to the intellectual mind and knowledge you have just dished out. Will those fickle-minded selfish leaders consult you to advise them? You already know the answer. KUDOS my forever brother.

If you want a Little Nigeria, you need to stay in Nigeria, this is the US not some African country.
