The ‘Great Migration’ of 1916-1919 meant that Chicago became an ethnically diverse city. The consequence of this was:
assimilation: all racial boundaries were dissolved by the ‘ethnic melting pot’
multiculturalism: all ethnic identities were celebrated equally
most ethnic groups were integrated into mainstream society, but the black population remained in the city’s ghettos
racism: the white host population were hostile and prejudiced towards migrants
most ethnic groups were integrated into mainstream society, but the black population remained in the city’s ghettos
Chicago has long been known as a city of migrants, but in the ‘Great Migration’ of 1916-1919, a growing demand for labour led to a rapid increase in the number of black people moving to the city. Chicago was seen as a vibrant, dynamic city and something of an ethnic melting pot, but Warner’s team found that black people were marginalized rather than embraced. In particular, black people tended to live in the city’s ghettos, with poor housing and economic deprivation, and this continued until the 1940s. 213-215
