Question

using the NPR Great Migration Interview, along with the Smithsonian article about the Great Migration, explain how that, in and of itself, was an example of African Americans resisting and overcoming, before finishing with other examples (Harlem Renaissance, Tuskegee Airmen, etc.) that show how blacks were taking pride and ownership of who they were and overcoming the obstacles white society had placed in front of them.

Answer 1

Scholarly research defined the Great Migration, which officially took place between 1916 and 1917, as "the relocation of more than 6 million African Americans from the rural South to the metropolis of the North, Midwest, and West."

• African Americans were forced to leave their homes in quest of "progressive" acceptance in the North, or more specifically, above the Mason-Dixon line.

• African Americans gradually carved out a new place for themselves in society as the Great Migration continued. They did this by "actively tackling racial prejudice as well as economic, political and social challenges to create a black urban culture that would exert enormous influence in the decades to come.

• The Harlem Renaissance appeared out of nowhere, marking the development of a new urban, African-American culture.

Thus this is how blacks were taking pride and ownership of who they were and overcoming the obstacles white society had placed in front of them.
