​Even as immigrants were being incorporated into the American population, the United States also struggled to deal with unresolved racial tensions especially in the South.

From the 1890s through the 1920s, tens of thousands of young African Americans migrated to northern cities in search of jobs, escaping the tenant farming and sharecropping system that had entangled their parents in debt while Jim Crow laws maintained a system of strict racial segregation.
