Which of the following were most affected by the great migration? a. ownership of railroads and steel mills b. african-american literature, music and art c. the immigration of europeans into the south d. northern fashion e. women’s rights

The correct answer is B) African-American literature, music and art.

The Great Migration took place shortly after World War I. This time period saw millions of African-American citizens move to the North and Midwest US states in order to escape the Jim Crow laws of the South. When arriving in the North and Midwest, African-Americans had a greater sense of freedom and opportunity. Due to this new sense of freedom, many African-Americans felt comfortable sharing their artistic talents. This resulted in the Harlem Renaissance. The Harlem Renaissance allowed for jazz music, developed by African-American musicians, to become wildly popular in the US.
