Respuesta :

a. Jim crow laws was a push factor for the great migration

The correct answer is A) Jim Crow Laws.

The Great Migration was a time period in US history during the early 20th century that resulted in the moving of millions of African-Americans from Southern states to Northern states. One of the biggest push factors behind this were Jim Crow laws.

Jim Crow laws were dominant in Southern states. These laws resulted in the development of segregated schools, public facilities, etc. These laws essentially limited the political and economic opportunities of African-Americans. This helps to explain why so many people left the south.
