Mexican migration to the U.S. changed drastically in the 1930s primarily due to the Great Depression, which led to widespread unemployment and economic hardship in both countries. The U.S. government implemented repatriation programs that aimed to deport Mexican immigrants and their U.S.-born children, often regardless of their legal status. Additionally, anti-immigrant sentiment and fears of job competition intensified during this period, further discouraging migration. As a result, the flow of Mexican migrants significantly decreased during the 1930s compared to previous decades.

The movement northward of African Americans between 1915 and 1930?

The movement northward of African Americans between 1915 and 1930 was called the Great Migration. The need for labor, the education opportunities, and safety called to the southern blacks to move up north.


What is the Mexican Repatriation of the 1930's?

From 1929-1939 Mexicans and Mexican Americans [citizens of the U.S.] were deported. According to the book, Decade of Betrayal, about 2 million Mexican and Mexican-Americans were deported. This represented 1/3 of the Mexican population in the US during the period of 1929-1939. Of the 2 million deported, it has been estimated that 60-75% were US citizens and US legal residents.

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.


Where did African Americans move during the great migration?

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.
