Movin' On

The Great Migration had a profound impact on the history of the United States in the twentieth century. Between 1910 and 1970, six and one half million African-Americans migrated from the South to northern cities, pushed by the hardships of their rural homelands and pulled by the job and educational opportunities of the urban North. This anthology introduces their story through letters, essays, government documents, photos, literature from the period, and news accounts of the participants: the migrants, their northern employers, the labor unions, news reporters, and leaders of the black community.
