Abstract
Professor of history Gary Gerstle talks about the racial fallout that ensued as many African-Americans moved from the rural south to the urban north in the 1940's and beyond. "These Blacks are coming into urban centers populated by Whites," Professor Gerstle explains. "There's not enough housing for them." The result was tension between the races that spilled over into acts of violence, including "...Blacks being burned out of their homes...being struck down in their streets...(by) White homeowners in cities...determined to take back their neighborhoods from what they see as Black incursion."
