African Americans who migrated north and west during the Great Migration sought better economic opportunities, escaping the oppressive Jim Crow laws of the South. They found jobs in industries and urban centers, leading to improved living standards for many. However, they still faced significant challenges, including racial discrimination, segregation, and limited access to housing and education in their new communities. Despite these obstacles, migration allowed for the establishment of vibrant cultural and social networks that laid the foundation for future civil rights movements.

A second movement -- New Great Migration -- has been occurring since 1965 and is essentially the reverse of the Great Migration, with African Americans moving to the "New South" where job growth exceeded that of the North and racism/discrimination has abated.
