520 1 $a"This study of Boston's West Indian immigrants examines the identities, goals, and aspirations of two generations of black migrants from the British-held Caribbean who settled in Boston between 1900 and 1950. Describing their experience among Boston's elite and in the context of the city's immigrant history, the book charts new conceptual territory. The Other Black Bostonians explores the premigration background of the immigrants, work and housing, identity, culture and community, activism and social mobility. What emerges is a detailed picture of Black immigrant life. Johnson's work makes a contribution to the study of the black diaspora as it charts the history of this first wave of Caribbean immigrants."--BOOK JACKET.
