1. What is the "Great Migration"?
The Great Migration, was the movement of 6 million African Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West that occurred between 1916 and 1970.
When did it happen and why?
The primary factors for migration among southern African Americans were segregation, an increase in the spread of racist ideology, widespread lynching (nearly 3,500 African Americans were lynched between 1882 and 1968), and lack of social and economic opportunities in the South.
2. Why do we say that a “culture boom” occurred in Harlem?
The Harlem Renaissance was a turning point in black cultural history. It helped African American writers and artists gain control over the representation of black culture and experience, and it provided them a place in Western high culture.

Why was it beneficial for the Afro-American people in Harlem?
The Great Migration drained off much of the rural black population of the South, and for a time, froze or reduced African-American population growth in parts of the region. In a number of states, there were decades of black population decline, especially across the Deep South "black belt" where cotton had been king.
3. What is the gentrification process?
Invasion of the rich and displacement of the poor. However, recent research shows a more nuanced reality
