"Honey, Hush!": Toward A Diasporic Analysis of Black Women’s Literary Humor

The African Diaspora... (1999)

Gordon, Edmund T., and Mark Anderson. "The African Diaspora: Toward an Ethnography of Diasporic Identification." Journal of American Folklore, 1999, pp. 282-296.

Gordon and Anderson analyze theoretical models developed around the concept of the African Diaspora, most of which focus on either essential "African" features or on diaspora as a condition of dispersal and hybridity. They argue for an ethnographic approach to diasporic identification that analyzes the processes through which individuals identify with one another as "Black" or "African."
