You can restate your argument however you'd like, but my summary holds. That the Nigerian Diaspora is relatively successful, especially when compared to the native population isn't shocking when we remember that most "legal" immigrant communities are more successful than the native population. That disparity generally disappears by the third or fourth generation. Turns out the process of immigration is a fairly good self-selection process [0]. But, the differences between immigrant groups has a racial component too. I've not done enough in depth reading on the disparity (mostly summaries from other people I vaguely remember), but I do often think about Gladwell's piece "Black like them" [1] when the topic comes up. Definitely something I need to read more about. [0] https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/28/upshot/immigration-america-rise-poor.html https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/28/upshot/immigration-americ...
