Jacob Lawrence’s The Migration of the Negro Series (1940-1941) is one painter’s visual account of the mass movement of African American men, women, and children during the early decades of the 20th century. He drew from his personal and familial experience to depict this narrative. His Sixty panels tell a tale of African American history in bold colors and geometric shapes.
This paper requires you to reflect on his particular vision of the Great Migration in a brief essay (around 1000 words). Please discuss Lawrence’s series in relation to the powerpoint and readings.
