Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Northward Movement of the Colored Population: A Statistical Study In which direction does the colored population of this country show a tendency to move - northwards or southwards? This is an important question, and the answer to it which has been given by some statisticians will be found, after careful study of the tenth and eleventh censuses, not to be the correct one. There is an interesting pamphlet by Mr. Henry Gannett, of the United States Geological Survey, on "Statistics of the Negroes in the United States" - it appeared in 1894 under the auspices of the Trustees of the John F. Slater Fund, and is for sale by The Friedenwald Company, Baltimore - which contains much valuable information as to the growth, diffusion, health, etc., of the colored population, and is illustrated by carefully prepared maps and diagrams. There is, however, one conclusion, or set of conclusions, reached by the author, which a careful study of the figures will, I submit, show to be erroneous. On page 13 he says, "The movement of these people from the south into the north has been inconsiderable," and, on page 20, "All this indicates in the most unmistakable terms a general southward migration of this race," and, on page 28, "They are moving southward from the bonier states into those of the south Atlantic and the Gulf."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years between 1880 and 1915, New York City and its environs underwent a tremendous demographic transformation with the arrival of millions of European immigrants, native whites from the rural countryside, and people of African descent from both the American South and the Caribbean. While all groups faced challenges in their adjustment to the city, hardening racial prejudices set the black experience apart from that of other newcomers. Through encounters with each other, blacks and whites, both together and in opposition, forged the contours of race relations that would affect the city for decades to come. Before Harlem reveals how black migrants and immigrants to New York entered a world far less welcoming than the one they had expected to find. White police officers, urban reformers, and neighbors faced off in a hostile environment that threatened black families in multiple ways. Unlike European immigrants, who typically struggled with low-paying jobs but who often saw their children move up the economic ladder, black people had limited employment opportunities that left them with almost no prospects of upward mobility. Their poverty and the vagaries of a restrictive job market forced unprecedented numbers of black women into the labor force, fundamentally affecting child-rearing practices and marital relationships. Despite hostile conditions, black people nevertheless claimed New York City as their own. Within their neighborhoods and their churches, their night clubs and their fraternal organizations, they forged discrete ethnic, regional, and religious communities. Diverse in their backgrounds, languages, and customs, black New Yorkers cultivated connections to others similar to themselves, forming organizations, support networks, and bonds of friendship with former strangers. In doing so, Marcy S. Sacks argues, they established a dynamic world that eventually sparked the Harlem Renaissance. By the 1920s, Harlem had become both a tragedy and a triumph—undeniably a ghetto replete with problems of poverty, overcrowding, and crime, but also a refuge and a haven, a physical place whose very name became legendary.

Download or read book The Metropolis in Black and White written by George C. Galster and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Metropolis in Black and White highlights a stark fact: America's metropolitan areas are more polarized along racial lines than at any time since the mid-1960s. Though urban areas have become multicultural, the editors argue that black-white racial differences will outlast ethnic differences in metropolitan America and that the race issue in most urban areas is perceived as a black-white one. Galster and Hill perceive that the theme of place, power, and polarization is most powerful when blacks and whites are contrasted. African Americans, on average, are the poorest, most segregated, most disadvantaged urban racial (or ethnic) group, because they are deeply entangled in the web of interrelationships connecting place, power, and polarization. Since these interrelationships form a comprehensive set of social structures that oppress African Americans, they can be judged to be racist at their core. Race, not merely class, continues to play a pivotal role in shaping urban African Americans. In clear analyses, the contributors examine employment, income, the underclass, education, housing, health and mortality, political participation, and racial politics. Intertwined themes of spatial isolation, political empowerment, and racial disparities-place, power, and polarization-guide the analyses. Thisis a vital text for courses in urban affairs, American studies, economics, geography, sociology, political science, urban planning, and racial and ethnic studies.
