A significant push factor in the Great Michigan Migration during the early to mid-20th century was the economic hardships faced by African Americans in the Southern United States. Many sought better job opportunities and living conditions in Michigan's burgeoning industrial cities, particularly Detroit, which promised employment in factories and a chance for a more prosperous life. Additionally, the pervasive racial discrimination and violence in the South drove many to seek refuge in the North, where they hoped for greater social and economic equality.
