34. Clifford notes, "Diaspora consciousness is produced positively through identification with world-historical cultural/political forces, such as 'Africa' or 'China.' The process may not be as much about being African or Chinese as about being American or British or wherever one has settled, differently" (James Clifford, Routes: Travel and Translation in the Late Twentieth Century [Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1997], 256-257).
