AFRICAN CULTURAL CENTER

" As African expatriates become immigrants, and as immigrants become citizens, they use aspects of traditional culture to maintain connections with their roots, affirm their identity, maintain positive self images for their children, express their links to other African world people and assert their unique contribution to their land of adaption. "
