Answer:
The correct answer is C: the economic flight of Caribbean peoples across the globe
Explanation:
First of all, it is worth stating that the term "diaspora" means the spread of individuals from their homeland. The Caribbean region has experienced several periods of economic hardship as well as military governments who made people leave their countries of origin. People migrate since they want to find better employment opportunities, better education, better ways of living. Some people also migrate due to natural disasters (floods, hurricanes). In the case of Caribbean people, they want to find a better way of living, they want to escape from poverty, lack of access to basic services, high crime, lack of security, as many Caribbean governments are oppressive and they do not guarantee basic individual rights.
