Many also flocked the cities centres in search of better way of living.
- Most of the immigrants not affording better traveling conditions and so came in steerage accommodations. On arriving into the United States they were kept in 'barn-like structures" during the periods of mass immigration awaiting screening after which they were probed and questioned on their health worthiness. Ill-looking or deemed to be disease carriers were prevented from entering into the United State.

African Americans are really an ethnicity of Americans of full or partial roots at any of Africa's black racial groups. In particular, the sentence refers to the descendants of slaves from the U.S.
During the years of the sub-Reconstruction era the number of factory jobs in southern cities has only shrunk to a small proportion. Yet comparatively few black Americans purchased their own land in the South, most of the poor landowners being heavily indebted to white property owners.
