Caribbean Perspectives on the African Diaspora at UWI

This course is intended to provide a detailed examination on the Caribbean Perspective on the communities throughout the world that are descended from the historic movement of peoples from Africa -- predominantly to the Americas, Europe and the Middle East, among other areas around the globe. The term has been historically applied in particular to the descendants of the West and Central Africans who were enslaved and shipped to the Americas by way of the Atlantic slave trade, with the largest population in the USA, among others.
