The Great Migration was the widespread migration of African Americans in the 20th
century from rural communities in the South to large cities in the North and West. At the
turn of the 20th century, most African Americans lived in the Southern states. However,
due to poor economic conditions and racial oppression in the form of strict segregation
laws, some six million black Southerners relocated to urban areas in the North and West
from 1916 to 1970. They were drawn to the North and West by job opportunities with
good wages and better overall living conditions.
