By relocating to the north and north eastern United States.

The economic situations of the World War I led to a strong movement of African Americans from the South to the North that is usually known as the Great Migration.

As millions of men went to Europe for fight the war and as the American economy moved to wartime production, industries and factories established themselves and required workers.

Women laborers also filled some of the vacancies but African Americans moved into many jobs in heavy numbers.
