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. "
— Diana Baird N'Diaye
