  • African Studies Question

    The Great Migration shaped not only African American culture, but the whole of American

    society as well. As Franklin and Higgenbotham (2021, p. 364) state, southern African Americans

    protested with their feet by moving North and West for a better life. Students will examine the

    causes of this migration and the role and impact of the Northern churches.

    Read over the appropriate Learning Activity Instructions below before you begin the Module:

    Week so that you can formulate a strategy for the assignment as you proceed through the

    material.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    The essay should be in two paragraphs, addressing the assigned prompt (and grading rubric).

    Students will use at least three of the Learn: Read and Watch Resources from the same Module:

    Week that this Learning Activity is assigned in. In the 1st paragraph, assess the reasons for the

    Great Migration and how it shaped African American churches as millions of African Americans

    moved North and West out of the South. In the 2nd paragraph, discuss how these church

    communities influenced the culture and politics of bourgeoning urban communities. Use a

    Biblical worldview to frame your response, evaluating how both Christianity and a Christian

    worldview shape your analysis of the Great Migration. Hint: referencing Scriptures with a direct

    verse or passage makes your Biblical connection very strong!

    Each Learning Activity must be well-structured, be carefully edited and revised, and demonstrate

    knowledge and application of the concepts studied in the readings for that Module: Week.
