Publisher's Synopsis
"The Negro Migrant in Pittsburgh" by Abraham Epstein offers a compelling look at the experiences of African Americans who migrated to Pittsburgh in the early 20th century. This meticulously researched study, originally published in 1918, examines the social conditions and challenges faced by these migrants as they sought new lives in an industrial city.
Focusing on urban sociology and the cultural dynamics of the era, Epstein's work delves into the realities of migration, exploring the integration (and segregation) of African Americans within Pittsburgh's burgeoning communities. It provides valuable insights into the historical context of race relations, economic opportunities, and the evolving social fabric of American cities. A vital resource for understanding African American history and the complexities of urban life in the 20th century, this book remains a significant contribution to the fields of sociology, cultural studies, and American history.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
