Extractions: Looking at a similar kind of imaginary allegiance to a long left behind homeland, Charles Piot linked what might be likened to a local diasporathe forced colonial era relocation of tens of thousands of Kabre in Togo to a fertile uninhabited area in the southern region to engage in cashcropping with an ongoing habitus of migration and repatriation. To this day Southern Kabre who are twice as numerous as northern Kabre continue to return to the north by the tens of thousands each yearto visit family and initiate children, to build houses and cover them with tin, and, to there be buried and join the cult of the ancestors. Piot argued that it is in the mobile toandfro space between homeland and frontier, village and city, and, increasingly, village and metropole, and in and around the opposingthough complementarypulls of money and ritual, that a quintesssentially Kabre and diasporic culture is enacted, producing a vernacular cosmopolitanism, that is at once rooted and mobile. Exploring another dimension of the ways Africans manage diaspora, Hylton Whyte mapped out how Zulu courtship and wedding songs, created and performed today, invoke the experience of movements between the countryside and the city, yet in a strikingly anachronistic fashion. Such songs evoke images of forms of transport, destinations, routes, dilemmas, and motives of movement that were endemic to the "classic" modes of migrancy under apartheid, but which have all but disappeared in recent decades. Whyte asked why these gaps have emerged between the facts and images of rural-urban travel in the post-apartheid age, and argued for the emergence of a sort of indigenous nostalgia that allows Zulu to continue to express allegiance to domestic reproduction even as material conditions make it ever harder to accomplish this feat.
