There are three gates in the area: Chicago, St. Louis, and New York. The major pull factor to these cities were the opportunity of labor. These cities were incredibly industrial and the factories were huge, meaning there were many job openings which were attractive to those in the South. Not only this, but the need for labor was something that African Americans wuld do anything for. Their families depended on them, and they needed to provide.  Also, the South was a lot less industrial than the North, meaning less jobs. ]]> 2019-10-23 11:51:57 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/401376034 bpburgess0717 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/401381549 In this source, there are quotes from an unknown man but they descrbed him as, "an educated African American man." He explains the benefits of moving to the North, such as higher wages. The push factors to get out of the South was that the African American were gettng heavily discriminated against. A lot of times, they could not find work because employers did not want African Americans working for them. A huge pull factor to the North was that the wages in the North were 15-25 percent higher than they were in the South. This attractive stat is something that many people back then and even today could not refuse. ]]> 2019-10-23 12:06:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/401381549 bpburgess0717 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/401385950 This photgraph really captures what the early 1900s in America was really like. This photograph shows workers packed in, in bad condition, while doing boring and repetive jobs. However, these factories brough many jobs. The pull factor to these areas were in fact these jobs. Regardless of them being boring and repetetive, there was a such a need for money that they really needed the money no matter how they got it. The push factor rom the South was a lot of times racist discrimination. It was very hard to find jobs because of their race, not to mention that the South was less industrialized; meaning less jobs available. ]]> 2019-10-23 12:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/401385950 adbuonaspina0915 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494101 In this picture a group of African American workers are shown outside of city hall while on their break. These are some of the first free African American workers who worked in a government, whether it was local or national. These workers came up to the North from the South seeking higher pay and more fair treatment.]]> 2019-10-25 11:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494101 adbuonaspina0915 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494517 Congressman Robert DeLarge's speech was very important in the process of immigration and moving to the North because he was guaranteeing rights to anyone who was born in the United States. He fought for the 14th Amendment, and immigrants would be drawn to this because they would have their children in the United States and then they would be U.S citizens, even if their parents were not.]]> 2019-10-25 11:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494517 adbuonaspina0915 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494757 During the 20th century, Chicago was known  Chicago was known as 'The Land of Promise'. Immigrants and slaves were both equally attracted to this because they saw the higher pay oppurtunities, surplus of wealth and jobs, and realized that most of their friends were going to Chicago too. ]]> 2019-10-25 11:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402494757 maferrer0423 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402495716 This article really is able to convey the point of view from the white people wanting to keep the African Americans from coming to the North and wanting to keep them all in the south.  The African Americans' push factor is that they want to get away from their poor economic conditions and the ongoing racial tension along with oppression of the African Americans from the Jim Crow laws. The pull factors is the higher wages and living conditions compared to the south which is still segregated and unfair for the African Americans.]]> 2019-10-25 11:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/402495716 maferrer0423 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/403145729 This picture shows a family who has traveled North to Chicago from rural South. The push factors were these people were segregated into ghettos and this family in the picture has eight people in it and I'm sure these people have a hard time living in segregated areas. On the other side, the pull factors are the advertisements for housing and employment there are first hand stories that are of the success in the north. The Chicago Defender is an example of a promoter for Chicago and moving there which may be why this family had the idea to migrate there.]]> 2019-10-28 03:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/403145729 maferrer0423 https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/403146574 In the early stages of The Great Migration more specifically 1915, there very many push factors that the pull factors didn't even really matter. In this account a family was pushed out of the South and into the North because the father of this family was going to be hung for almost no reason at all. The pull factors is that if they move North then he will not get persecuted instead of ending up like his friend who was hung and disgustingly hazed after he was already hung.]]> 2019-10-28 03:08:49 UTC https://padlet.com/bpburgess0717/pwmh8okicl30/wish/403146574
