The Great Migration SOUTHERN BLACKS AND THE LURE OF THE NORTH BEFORE AND AFTER 1914 Most African Americans remained in the South nearly fifty years after the Civil War. There were plenty of reasons for blacks to leave the south, but little economic advantage to moving northward. With outbreak of World War I, this dynamic changes because: – 1) war generates new opportunities for industry – 2) much of existing labor supply leaves work force – 3) immigrant labor pool evaporates. End result: The Great Migration which congregated black populations in northern cities like Chicago and New York in unprecedented numbers. The concentration, in New York city, occurred on the upper west side, in Harlem.
