{"product_id":"a-century-of-negro-migration-carter-g-woodson-9781162647777","title":"A Century Of Negro Migration","description":"\"\"A Century of Negro Migration\"\" by Carter G. Woodson is a historical account of the movement of African Americans from the rural South to the urban North between 1819 and 1919. The book examines the reasons behind this migration, including the desire for better economic opportunities, escape from racial violence and discrimination, and the hope for a better life for their families. Woodson also explores the challenges faced by African Americans in the North, including racism, segregation, and poverty. He highlights the contributions of African Americans to the development of Northern cities, including their role in building the industrial economy. This book provides a comprehensive overview of a significant period in African American history and sheds light on the struggles and triumphs of those who migrated in search of a better life.\"\"In some of these cases the fugitives found themselves among men more hostile to them than their masters were, for many of the Union soldiers of the border States were slaveholders themselves and northern soldiers did not understand that they were fighting to free Negroes. The condition in which they were on arriving, moreover, was a new problem for the army. Some came naked, some in decrepitude, some afflicted with disease, and some wounded in their efforts to escape.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
