Can we talk of a collective, diasporic memory? I will argue that in the case of the African-Caribbean community, there are distinctive features -- such as the need to "tell" and the need to "connect" -- which suggests that this diasporic memory is framed through identifiable cultural templates, which distinguish it from the memories of migrants.
