The most dramatic change in the geographic distribution of African Americans in the U.S. occurred during the Great Migration, which took place from the early 20th century to the 1970s. Millions of African Americans moved from the rural South to urban areas in the North and West, seeking better economic opportunities and escaping Jim Crow laws. This shift significantly altered the demographic landscape, leading to the growth of vibrant African American communities in cities like Chicago, Detroit, and New York. Today, while many African Americans still reside in these urban centers, there has been a recent trend of migration back to the South, often referred to as the New Great Migration.
