    How The Great Migration Impacted St. Louis with Priscilla Dowden-White

    One of the largest movements in U.S. History was The Great Migration, where an influx of African Americans left the South from 1910 - 1970 to the Midwest and northern states. During this time, approximately 6 million African Americans fled the Jim Crow South for better jobs, treatment, and opportunities. One of the cities of interest was St. Louis, especially for Louisiana and Mississippi residents.   In this episode, Author and University of Missouri Professor Priscilla Dowden-White joins us to talk about how the Great Migration to the Gateway City was felt nationwide.    This conversation is inspired by PBS's newest limited series "Great Migrations: A People on the Move" by Henry Lewis Gates.
