African American Migration Case Study

This case study we will talk about the migration of African Americans, from the south to northern and western cities in the mid-twentieth century, which was one of the most significant demographic changes in The United States. This study will talk about different behaviors, theories, and how geographic context can play a role in people’s life such as: social groups, time periods, and comparative settings.
