This weeks discussions

We have had quite an interesting class discussion regarding the Black women's activist clubs, why the African Americans migrated north and how they were treated once they arrived. I have found it interesting that the north protested the treatment of the Blacks and yet in much the same way they treated the Blacks as second class citizens as well. They gave the women the jobs that no white women wanted; they got the lower end jobs when white women vacated them. Again here we have Black women who wanted to do better for their families and though the pay was better the jobs were discriminating.
