It was and is the way we live our lives without that we wouldnt have the rights we do today
The United States adopted quite couple of Jefferson’s ideas.
One being his ideas on the Declaration of Independence; he felt it should be referenced and changed with every generation to keep up with the ever-changing needs of newer generations. This impacts our present day, and is why we have the Census every 10 years.
The second being The Ward System. The Ward System was created by Jefferson, and provided free school, the scholarship system, police, militia, and more. These are still implemented present day.
This is about the extent of my Jefferson history knowledge, hopefully this is enough to help you out!! (I am taking a Political Science class and learned this from it. All real information!)
The main factor that influenced African Americans to migrate from the South to Northern cities was that they were looking for better economic opportunities.
The Great Migration, also known as the Great Northward Migration in the 20th century, happened because most black people were badly treated by many people that still expected African Americans to be slaves, and their economic conditions were quite poor.
As a result, African Americans decided to migrate to the Northern cities, where they would get many job opportunities as well as going to have a better lifestyle by not being discriminated.
