520 "This book examines the impact of "out of Africa"
migrations on the development of the Global North. The
current body of research on the history of human
migrations has documented the African global presence from
ancient times to the present. Yet the impact of the
African migrations, voluntary or forced, on the
development of the Modern World, especially the Global
North, has either been neglected, ignored or distorted in
historical accounts. It is now common knowledge that
Africa has most of the world's natural resources,
primarily for exports. These resources include gold,
diamond, copper, oil and natural gas, iron ore, aluminum,
uranium, phosphate, etc. It is equally important to note
that available data have also documented Africa's exports
of its human capital for the development of the modern
world, especially the Global North. In filling this gap in
the literature, this volume focuses on the United States
of America, the most powerful nation in the Global North,
for an in-depth study. It is hypothesized in this study
that Africans and peoples of African descent were central
to the development and growth of the United States from
its beginnings to the present. The study depends primarily
on culturally relevant Historiographical method. A major
distinguished feature of this volume is its Afrocentric
multidisciplinary approach while relying heavily on the
discipline of History. The concluding chapter draws on
multiple sources in summarizing the contributions and the
impact of Africa and peoples of African descent in the
American Experience as a major part of the Global North.
It probes current trends and trajectories in African
American Studies; African American Quality of Life; the
future role of Africa and the African Diaspora in American
life and the Global North."--|cProvided by publisher
