Black Women Expatriots

GLOBE

A quiet revolution is underway — and black women are at the center of it. More and more are making the decision to leave the united states, not just for travel, but for a new life. It’s being called “Blackxit” — and destinations like Ghana, Portugal, Mexico, Jamaica, and beyond are becoming new home bases. What’s driving this movement… and is it just beginning? We’re talking with several women who have made the leap — and what they found on the other side.
