African Americans who migrated to the Great Plains in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were commonly referred to as "Exodusters." This term specifically described those who left the South after the Civil War seeking better opportunities and escaping racial discrimination. Many Exodusters settled in states like Kansas, where they sought land and a chance to build new lives amidst the promise of the West.
