| Research Abstract |
This study aims to make an interdisciplinary inquiry into Haitian immigrants who came to New York City since the late 1960s and their descendants. Especially from the perspective of the notion of diaspora, I put my analytical emphasis on their specific social position in New York City and their historical relations to two groups, African Americans and non-Haitian West Indians, both of whom have been presumed to share the same racial category as blacks.
