A massive number of African Americans migrated from the south to the north after World War I. The south had long been the location with the largest number of African Americans lived. The issue of race came front and center after World War I. After returning from the war, black soldiers saw no change or opportunity existed for them in the south, and many took part in the Great Migration, which at its end had 80 percent of blacks living in cities.
