African diaspora studies

African diaspora studies is an academic field that explores the history, culture, and experiences of people of African descent around the world, especially those who were forcibly displaced through events like the transatlantic slave trade. It examines how these individuals and their descendants have shaped societies, maintained cultural identities, and faced ongoing challenges related to race and inequality. By understanding these interconnected histories and cultural expressions, the field promotes a deeper appreciation of the contributions and resilience of African-descended communities globally.
