The Great Migration, which saw a significant number of African Americans leave the South for better opportunities in the North and West, had several indirect benefits for those who remained in Mississippi. It reduced competition for jobs, allowing those who stayed to find better employment opportunities in agriculture and local industries. Additionally, the departure of some community members led to increased political engagement among those who remained, as they sought to address systemic issues and improve conditions in their communities. This migration also fostered a stronger sense of solidarity and cultural identity among those left behind.

The Great Migration was the movement of 2 million blacks out of the Southern United States to the Northeast, Midwest and West from 1910 to 1930.[1] African Americans migrated to escape racism and prejudice in the South, as well as to seek jobs in industrial cities.
The large scale migration of African-Americans from the agricultural south to the industrial north during the twentieth century came to be known as the Great Migration. More than 6 million blacks moved out of the rural south to the Northeast, Midwest and West to compete for manufacturing and other jobs in northern cities. By the end of the Great migration in the 1960's, African-Americans had become an urbanized population. More than 80 percent lived in cities. It was one of the largest and most rapid migrations in history.
In the Great Migration, which took place in 1910-1930, millions of African Americans "migrated" to the Midwest, Northeast, and West of the United States from Southern states such as Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana. 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.
