The 1920s got a lot of its character in entertainment from the Harlem Renaissance. And that wouldn't have happened without The Great Migration. While the results may have been positive, the cause was certainly not.

Early in the video, I accidentally say that the migration was from north to south, but of course, it was the reverse. Just a slip of the tongue.

9:17 "fair skin and darker skin Black Americans". Blacks are on the opposite color spectrum of Whites, while "darker" suggests a relative sense! It's like the euphemism, "older" to refer to old people. In US culture, Black skin and old age are taboo.🤣

Crash Course has created a series of 12-15 min long videos covering topics such as the Great Migration and the Red Summer too. Some of the greatest content theyve produced to date

I was amazed to learn recently that the term "art deco" was only coined in the 1960s. It explains why I just started hearing the term over and over in the late 60s, and wondering what it was, and why everybody was so excited about it. It had been around since the twenties, but never had a name until the sixties.

What many dont know florida had 2 cities that was known as the harlem of the south during this time one in jacksonville one in miami. Not all blacks in the south went up north. Some went to fl because parts of fl blacks had work and was doing very good. In overtown miami blacks were very successfull. Had their own houses barbeshops stores everything. Alot of famous people from up north like boxer Ali always came down and enjoyed hisself in miami. Whites even attended some events that was held in overtown. But no history wont tell you that. In fl lots of blacks had their own cities away from jim crow where they went to school and everything.

From David A. Wood: If there was ever both a historical period and locale that I would have loved to have lived in, it would have to respectively be the Harlem Renaissance Era of the mid to late 1920s and the Upper Manhattan district of Harlem itself. It would have been really cool to have culturally thrived within an environment populated by socially scintillating people like Langston Hughes, Duke Ellington, Fletcher Henderson, Zora Neale Hurston, Alain Locke, etc. Also, to have actually lived in Harlem itself, the geographically sprawling, socially teeming and elegantly fashionable district itself having been rightfully regarded during the Harlem Renaissance Era as "The Capitol Of Black America," would have been sublimely ideal as you were surrounded by the ultra stylish, seemingly affluent, and colorfully urbanized residents of 1920s Harlem. All in all, the Harlem Renaissance Era was an emotionally/socially uplifting, cultural period for African-Americans all over the USA, which ironically occurred during a historically problematic period for African-Americans. One could pretty much state that opinion after seriously take into consideration that at the same time during the existence of the sublime and urbanized Harlem Renaissance, you also had throughout the USA both legally codified Racial Segregation (Jim Crow) and a malevolently revived Ku Klux Klan, whose actual members/moral sympathizers regularly committed, with often lethal impunity, what would contemporarily be considered very horrible Hate Crimes.

The fact that Storeyville, the District in New Orleans, was shut down in 1917 also played a major role. The Army wanted to prevent soldiers on the way to Europe from getting VD and the musicians working there lost their jobs. Also, in that year, the first recordings of jazz ( at first written "jass") came on the market.

An important piece of history is that in the antebellum, the Northern Whites were just as racist as Southern Whites. Several states had laws and constitutions that went so far as to forbid any entry by blacks. So, when the civil war ended, there was no interest in giving the newly freed blacks their own territories, but interest only in forcing the unwanted onto the defeated southerners. Without that, there never would have been any "great migration."

Teaching people the importance of voting in every single election is a good start.

Absolutely ZERO issue with more people voting. As long as the voting is legal and secure. And NO voter ID isn't voter suppression. You need an ID today for almost everything, EVERYTHING. From renting a hotel room to buying a cell phone. As far as "gerrymandering" goes, yes it's done frequently. The only part I take exception with when's it's done by Republicans it's called gerrymandering. When done by Democrats it's called expanding voter registration rolls.
