The correct answer is D) the Great Migration.

The historical event that Zora Neale Hurston is describing in this quote is the Great Migration.

There was a time in the modern history of the United States when more than 6 million African Americans from the southern states decided to move up north. This was known as the Great Migration.

Black people who lived in the poor and rural areas of the southern states decided to move to the North and Midwest. The migration started around 1916 and finally ended in 1970.

The reason?

African Americans were tired of segregationism practices in the South and decided to migrate to the North, where the big industries needed extra hands in the factories to operate the machines during  World War I. What these people were looking for was a better life for their families.

Social media platforms cause low attention stands. The longer a teenager stays on social media the more they don't focus on another thing than that app. Technology corrupts the human mind. It shows us things that we believe is real even though it isn't. Every day when on social media we kill our brain cells and slow lose the ability to focus on other things. if we are unable to focus on others things than we won't be able to learn in school, talk to others in person, ect. it takes a long time to try and restore your focus spans. So if you use social media every day for multiple hours, i would suggest taking a break and putting your phone down.

The given map depicts Europe in the XVII century, based on the delimitations of the map we can conclude that the country with more religion tolerance would be the country located in an area where many different religions converge, and this would the <em>Balkan Peninsula</em>.

The Balkan Peninsula was part of the Ottoman Empire, and indeed, the Ottoman Empire accepted non-Muslim communities by recognizing their own religions and offering them protection under the Islamic tradition.
