Diaspora
A diaspora is a group of people forced from or chosen to leave their homeland to settle in other lands. People of a diaspora typically preserve and celebrate the culture and traditions of their homeland.

The term diaspora comes from the Greek verb diaspeirô meaning "to scatter" or "to spread about".

Today, scholars recognize two kinds of diaspora: forced and voluntary

Forced diaspora often arises from traumatic events such as wars, imperialistic conquest, or slavery, or from natural disasters like famine or extended drought.

Voluntary diaspora is a community of people who left the homeland in search of economic opportunity.

Chapman

A Chapman is a non-alcoholic drink, usually of red color. Sometimes referred to as non-alcoholic punch, it is traditionally made with a mix of Fanta, Sprite, Cucumber, Lemon, Grenadine and Angostura bitters and is traditionally served in a large mug with ice and a few slices of cucumber.

It often described as Nigeria's favourite drink and though predominantly served without alcohol, it can also be served with a hint of Voldka or rum.

It is believed that the Chapman originated in Ikoyi Club, Lagos, Nigeria. The drink was created by a bartender at the country club who was asked to make something special for his favourite customer named Chapman.

Feminism
Feminism is a range of social movements, political movements, and ideologies that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve the political, economic, personal, and social equality of the s*xes.

Feminism incorporates the position that societies prioritize the male point of view, and that women are treated unfairly within these societies.

Effort to change that include fighting gender stereotypes and seeking to establish educational and professional opportunities for women that are equal to those for men.

Feminist movements have campaigned and continue to campaign for women's rights including the right to vote, to hold public office, to work, to earn fair wages, equal pay and eliminate the gender pay gap, to own property, to receive education, to enter contracts, to have equal rights within marriage, and to have maternity leave.
