Many African Americans moved to northern and Midwest cities during the Great Migration, which occurred primarily between 1916 and 1970. This migration was driven by the search for better economic opportunities, escaping the oppressive conditions of the Jim Crow South, and the desire to reunite with family members who had already relocated. Industrial jobs in cities like Chicago, Detroit, and New York attracted many, as factories needed labor during World War I and later during World War II. This movement significantly reshaped urban Demographics and contributed to the cultural and social dynamics of these cities.
