The Great Migration occurred during World War I as African Americans sought better economic opportunities and escape from the oppressive conditions of the Jim Crow South. The war created a labor shortage in northern industrial cities, prompting factories to recruit workers from the South. This movement allowed many African Americans to find jobs in industries such as steel, meatpacking, and munitions, leading to a demographic shift and significant cultural changes in urban areas. The migration also laid the groundwork for the civil rights movements that would follow in subsequent decades.

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 during World War I was a significant movement of African Americans from the rural South to urban areas in the North and West, primarily between 1916 and 1970. Driven by the search for better economic opportunities, escape from Jim Crow segregation, and the demand for labor in factories due to the war, millions relocated to cities like Chicago, Detroit, and New York. This migration not only transformed the demographics of these urban centers but also had a profound impact on cultural expressions, laying the groundwork for the Harlem Renaissance and advancing the civil rights movement.
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

If the Great Migration didn't happen, African Americans would likely have remained more concentrated in the Southern United States. This could have resulted in slower progress towards civil rights and economic opportunities that many African Americans found in the North and West during the Great Migration. Additionally, cultural exchange and diversity in northern cities would have been impacted.

The Great Migration in the Serengeti typically occurs between late May and October. This migration is characterized by the movement of over a million wildebeest, along with zebras and other animals, as they search for fresh grazing pastures and water. The animals generally move northward to the Maasai Mara in Kenya during the dry season, returning to the Serengeti as the rains begin around November.
