AFRICAN AMERICANS AND 1920’s POLITICS Ch.17 Section 4

The Black Vote in the North World War I set the stage for African Americans to reenter federal politics. The Great Migration had a significant impact on their political power. They became a powerful voting bloc. Most cast their votes with the Republican Party (Abraham Lincoln) Significant breakthrough: In 1928-Oscar DePriest-1st African American representative in Congress.

NAACP Battles Injustice Battled against segregation and discrimination. Focused on lobbying public officials and working through the court system. Also lobbied against lynching— Significant triumph: 1930-defeat of John J. Parker’s nomination to Supreme Court.

Black Nationalism and Marcus Garvey Marcus Garvey: black leader from Jamaica “Negro Nationalism”—founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This organization promoted black pride and unity. Central message: African Americans could gain economic and political power by educating themselves. He also advocated separation and independence from whites…proposed leading them to Africa.
