Approximately six million African Americans participated in the Great Migration, which occurred in two main waves from 1916 to 1970. This mass movement saw many seeking better economic opportunities and escaping racial discrimination in the Southern United States. They relocated primarily to Northern and Western cities, significantly impacting urban Demographics and culture.
