African diaspora

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  (Redirected from African Diaspora)

The African Diaspora was the movement of Africans and their descendants to places throughout the world - predominantly to the Americas, then later to Europe, the Middle East and other places around the globe.

The term is applied in particular to the descendents of the Black Africans who were enslaved and shipped to the Americas by way of theAtlantic slave trade, with the largest population in Brazil (see Afro-Brazilian). People of Sub-Saharan descent number at least 800 million in Africa and over 140 million in the Western Hemisphere, representing around 14% of the world's population.[1][2]
