2. Family: - PULL FACTOR: the enthusiasm and willingness to join their families or cater for them pull many out of the southern part

3. Segregation: - PUSH FACTOR: the issue of segregation plays a negative impact on the success of blacks in the south, as it affects their opportunities, hence the need to move away from the south to either west or north.

4. Low paying jobs (sharecropping): - PUSH FACTOR: the issue of low paying jobs push them to look for places where there are high paying jobs

5. Jim Crow Laws: - PUSH FACTOR: Jim Crow laws are laws specifically designed in the Southern United States to disenfranchise and limit the opportunity for blacks to succeed, hence, this forces many of them to immigrate for a better environment.
