After a discussion about the African diaspora, students will break into small group and read contemporary secondary sources about global migration, the African diaspora and economic development in Africa, and the Chinese government's response to the African diaspora during the coronavirus pandemic. Students will then share their findings with the class via a shared Google presentation. The learning objectives of this lesson are for students to explain contemporary geographic effects of migration, analyze relationships among and between places to reveal important spatial patterns, explain how government initiatives may affect economic development, and explain the causes and geographic consequences of recent economic changes, such as growing interdependence in the world economy.
