The great African American migration was because the share croppers of the South decided to move to northern cities and get factory jobs. This started in 1916-1930. These African Americans were able to get factory jobs because many of the white men were in the army for World War I.
The Great Migration was the movement of over 1 million[African Americans out of the rural Southern United States from 1914 to 1950.

The Great Migration refers to the mass movement of African Americans from the rural South to urban areas in the North and West between the 1910s and 1970s, particularly following World War I. This migration was driven by the search for better economic opportunities, escaping Jim Crow laws, and the desire for a better quality of life. However, African Americans faced significant challenges such as racial discrimination, housing shortages, and violent backlash in their new urban environments. At the same time, they found opportunities for employment in industries that were booming during the war and could participate in cultural and social movements that would shape their communities.
The Great Migration was the movement of 6 million African Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the Northeast, Midwest, and West from 1910 to 1970. Some historians differentiate between the first Great Migration (1910-1930), numbering about 1.6 million migrants who left mostly rural areas to migrate to northern and midwestern industrial cities, and, after a lull during the Great Depression, a Second Great Migration (1940 to 1970), in which 5 million or more people moved, including many to California and various western cities. i got it from wikipedia

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.
