Voluntary migration often occurs for economic reasons; the "Great Migration" of African Americans to Chicago after WWI is an example of this type of movement. This website exhibit from the Library of Congress discusses the challenges and triumphs of Chicago's newest residents. Read the descriptions of the documents and write a short paragraph describing the ways new residents helped each other, as well as the challenges they faced

Respuesta :

The Chicago Defender was a remarkably successful in encouraging blacks to migrate from the South to Chicago, often listing names of churches and other organizations to whom they could write for help. The geographic isolation and discriminatory school policies imposed on urban blacks gradually lowered the quality of their public education system and inspired the use of stopgap measures to solve such problems as overcrowding.

The question above wants to assess your ability to analyze documents and your ability to describe this analysis in one paragraph. In this case, I can't write the paragraph for you, but I'll show you how to write it.

First, you need to read the documents that your question presents and search for articles that show the situation of African Americans in the “Great Migration.

Based on the information in these articles, you can write the paragraph as follows:

  1. Give a light presentation of what the "Great Migration" was like.
  2. Show the reasons for this event.
  3. Show how the difficulties faced by Afro-Americans.
  4. Show how they organized to provide each other with housing and food.
  5. Show which institutions helped African Americans at that time.
  6. Show how this help was requested.

You must support all information presented with textual evidence present in the documents and articles you have read.
