African American settlers traveling westward responded to the racism they faced from white settlers by protesting and starting a cultural renaissance.
Over six million African Americans moved out of the rural Southern United States and migrated to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West in what is called the Great Migration (1910-1970).
The reasons included the poor economic conditions of African Americans in the Southern states, the continuation of racial segregation and discrimination there including the widespread lynchings of blacks.
These migrants settled in the largest cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, forming influential communities in these places.
Due to these large-scale migrations, competition for jobs and housing rose, and this caused tensions with the white settlers there. White workers in various factories demanded segregation in the workplace, which erupted in violence.
African American settlers responded through labor activism and protests, and most significantly it led to the Harlem Renaissance in the 1940s, which was an African-American cultural revolution.

Paragraph:
"take a stand and tell what you think has been the most important change to the citizenship laws in the United States. Why did you choose this?"
After studying this timeline, I have several mixed emotions towards all the changes and extents in which some of these citizenship laws have targeted. Though there is much to uncover here, truly there is only one that I feel is the most important, beneficial, and altering change that has occurred. In 1952, the U.S congress made a change to their laws, stating that "citizenship cannot be denied because of race or gender." This has been one of our nation's greatest decisions and I'm sure that many people can agree it was very necessary for our thriving population. This law ensures that a person's citizenship cannot be disregarded in terms of race or gender, giving everyone their full potential in our society.
