"B. More blacks owned farms than at any earlier time in U.S. history." This question is referring to the "Great Migration" which removed many black farmers from the South.

The correct answer is B) More blacks owned farms than at any earlier time in U.S. history.

The other options of the question were A) Langston Hughes and other black poets became well known. C) Chicago's black population increased by 50 percent. D) New York's black population increased by 66 percent.

During the 1920s more than a million blacks moved from the South to cities in the North. What was not a result of that migration was "More blacks owned farms than at any earlier time in U.S. history."

We are talking about an important period in the United States modern history in which approximately 10 million African Americans decided to leave rural areas in the south to find better living conditions and work opportunities in the large cities of the north. This time is known as the Great Migration(1912-1970). Manufacturing companies were offering low paid jobs but this represented a good chance for blacks that were discriminated against and segregated in the south.
