^ The two most traumatic experiences in the nation's history were the Civil War (1861-65) and the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The Great Migration began during World War I, hitting its high point during World War II. During this migration, blacks left the racism and lack of opportunities in the South and settled in northern cities like
Chicago,
Detroit,
Cleveland,
Milwaukee,
St. Louis,
Pittsburgh,
Philadelphia,
New York City, and
Boston, where they found work in factories and other sectors of the economy. (Katzman, 1996) However, Chicago quickly became the most segregated city in the north. This migration produced a new sense of independence in the Black community and contributed to the vibrant black urban culture seen during the
Harlem Renaissance.
