Diaspora, it’s time for Africa is not a cliché!

For a long time, remittances and tourism have been the areas where the diaspora has proven to have a critical impact in Africa. These are the most recognizable ways in which the diaspora relates to Africa. They are not comparable to the experience of day-to-day living in Africa, but as a member of the diaspora that once relocated from my ancestral homeland of Kenya four years ago; I know there are additional ways Africans abroad are making an impact in Africa.
