A sharp expansion of its scale in the 1980s and especially the 1990s. The United States has a program – which aims to increase ethnic diversity by increasing the immigration quota of countries whose citizens in insufficient numbers enter the United States. Entry under such programs is the easiest, since it does not require documents with either an official job offer or confirming the presence of relatives of citizens of the country. Between 2000 and 2013, one in five immigrants (19% of total immigrants) from sub-Saharan Africa entered the United States under such a program.
In the United States, not an African diaspora has developed, but separate diasporas; Nigerian, Ethiopian, etc. it is the country of origin that is the focal point of the identity of the majority of first generation African migrants. The fact that the status of members of one society (and not colonizers and colonized ones) may depend on race, that racial division can be one of the foundations of its structure and serve as a prism through which the inhabitants of the country perceive everything and everyone (and therefore can consider Africans, African -Americans and African-Caribbean as one group), causes amazement and confusion among people who come to the United States from the generally mono-racial countries of Africa. In general, it’s quite funny – in this matter, with the TK of the average Russian, African large numbers are much more normal than indigenous African Americans. Thus, African Americans and Africans (as well as Blacks from the Caribbean) do not form a single black community.
You should pay attention to the latest trend of African migration to the United States, which is the development of small towns in the outback by migrants! There is another trend that is alarming for the future of the United States. Among wealthy and educated upper-middle-class African Americans and millionaire black celebrities, the desire to associate with Africans, Africa has taken on other manifestations. An important role in this was played by A. Haley’s novel Roots: The Saga of the American Family, first published in 1976, and a television mini-series based on it the following year. Inspired by the ideas of restoring both their own genealogies, and the unity of the black world, the continuity of black culture in time and space, these people do an expensive DNA analysis to find out which people their ancestors were taken to the New World belonged to. This instills in African-Americans a double identity and greatly expands their horizons, allowing them to establish contacts with “large numbers of people”.
