The 1920s was a period of migration, and many Negroes (as black people were then called) moved from the deep south and parts of the midwest up to the north, especially New York City, where they were told there was more opportunity. Many musicians, artists, poets, sculptors, and authors found that Harlem was a very hospitable place for their creativity, and the Harlem Renaissance is proof of that.

By definition there were no African Americans in the British Isles. Africans were present from the early days of slavery. After 1930 West Indians from the Carribena were invited to come to the UK. It can be argued that the Carribean is part of the Americas and thus for the last 80 years approximately there have been African-Americans in the British- Isles
