1. The Great Migration, sometimes known as the Great Northward Migration or the Black Migration, was the movement of 6 million African Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West that occurred between 1916 and 1970.

2. The primary factors for migration among southern African Americans were segregation, an increase in the spread of racist ideology, widespread lynching (nearly 3,500 African Americans were lynched between 1882 and 1968), and lack of social and economic opportunities in the South.

5. Scottsboro Boys': A 1931 case of legal lynching revisited.

6. After World War II, the Great Depression Ended, so it was more economically feasible to have a family. Men lose their sex orgasm due to deployment. Also, men came home from the war eager to get back with their women and have children. (Maybe rephrase a little of that if you need to.)

7. In 1944, the Supreme Court ruled 8–1 against the Texas white primary system in Smith V. In that case, the Court ruled that the 1923 Texas state law was unconstitutional, because it allowed the state Democratic Party to racially discriminate.

8. Executive Order 8802 was signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on June 25, 1941, to prohibit ethnic or racial discrimination in the nation's defense industry. It was the first federal action, though not a law, to promote equal opportunity and prohibit employment discrimination in the United States.

Those are all the questions I didn’t get stumped by. Maybe ask someone else about number 3 and 4. Glad I can help. At least a little.
