After the end of the Civil war, a great movement of people took place in the United States. This phenomenon was known as The Great Migration, and it involved the movement of black people from the southern states to the north of the country.

There were two main reasons for this migration. The first one was the fact that, although slavery had been abolished, black Americans continued to suffer racism and discrimination in the South. Many laws were passed in order to minimize their legal gains, and many people were openly hostile to the idea of inequality. Migrants hoped that the North would be more accepting of them. The second reason is the fact that Black Americans hoped to find more opportunities for work in the more industrialized and developed northern region.
