The North by South webpage explores the multiple dimensions of the Great Migration of African-Americans from the rural South to Northern cities. [...] Between the years 1900 and 1960, over 4,809,000 African-Americans fled the South's oppressive conditions. [...] The North by South webpage seeks to illuminate the numerous effects of Northern migration on African-American culture through exploring three distinct patterns of migration. Conducted over the course of three academic years (1997-2000), Kenyon College students studied--under the supervision of National Endowment for the Humanities Distinguished Teaching Professors of History Peter Rutkoff and William Scott the migration of blacks from: South Carolina to New York City, the Mississippi Delta to Chicago, and Birmingham, Alabama, to Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Through focusing on specific patterns of migration, one can closely identify the transmission and transformation of African-American culture and social customs witnessed in these urban communities.
