Answer:

The Great Migration was one in the 1900s that is considered a silent protest by African Americans and a demonstration that if given the chance, they opted for the best no matter how hard or far it could be. While many of the older African Americans opted to stay in the south, the younger generation who were hungry for success, equality, and freedom opted to make the move in search of better. Other reasons for the move included the need for better-paying jobs after the world war, unfair labor practices and access to better schools and education.
