The Great Migration Key Terms Migration Who? What? When? Where? Why? (Six Reasons) Reaction of Northern Whites

What does migration mean? Migration is the process of moving from one location to another. This could be moving from one country to another country or just moving in the same town! Immigration is a kind of migration!

Some basic info… Who: 500,000 African Americans What: Migrated from the South to the North Where: Large cities such as New York, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, and St. Louis

When was all this happening? The Great Migration happened between 1910 and 1920, especially during World War I.

Why did so many African Americans leave the south? 1. Jobs in the South were scarce (very few) and low paying. African Americans could earn a lot more money in the North

2. African Americans faced discrimination and violence in the South. The South was still dealing with the effects of the Civil War, including Jim Crow laws

3. African American moved to northern cities in search of better job opportunities. WWI almost completely stopped immigration from Europe The northern industries needed African Americans to work

World War I also increased the demand for goods World War I also increased the demand for goods. This increase in demand meant an even greater need for jobs!
