In the US and UK, relationships between African immigrant communities and other Black communities - namely, African-Americans in the US and Black Caribbeans in the UK - are simultaneously sites of unity and contention. Black communities can unite in their struggle against anti-Black racism, but the cultural differences that exist between these communities can be a source of conflict. The (dis)harmonious nature of these inter-diaspora relationships influences how second generation Africans see themselves in these predominantly White societies and impacts how they create their transnational, racialized Black identities. Using data from my study on the transnational lives of second generation Ghanaians (SGGs). this seminar will explore how SGGs in London and New York City form their Black, diasporic identities and how their relationships with African-Americans in the US and Black Caribbeans in the UK influence their identity formation. The seminar will also explore the impact of anti-Black racism in SGG identity formation.
