Publisher's summary

Carter Godwin Woodson (1875-1950) was an author, historian, journalist, and the founder of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. Published in 1918, A Century of Negro Migration chronicles the movement of Blacks from the South to the North and West. The introductory section discusses early migrations during the colonial era and at the close of the 18th century. The history up to the early 20th century is covered in chapters like "Transplantation to the North"; "Fighting it out on Free Soil"; "Colonization as a Remedy for Migration"; "The Successful Migrant"; "Confusing Movements"; "Exodus to the West"; "The Migration of the Talented Tenth", and "The Exodus During the World War". Drawing on information from newspapers, personal letters, and academic journals, the work is both a detailed history and a poignant account of decades of oppression and of liberation and achievement.
