It appears that the statements provided relate to historical events, particularly the Great Migration and its impact on African Americans and immigrants. However, since I do not have access to the specific map you mentioned, I can guide you on how to determine the correct statement based on general knowledge about the Great Migration and related historical contexts.

  1. The Great Migration refers to the movement of millions of African Americans from the rural South to urban areas in the North, particularly during the early 20th century. This migration was largely motivated by the search for better economic opportunities and escape from racial oppression.

  2. Former slaves and government assistance: While some programs aimed at helping former slaves existed during and after Reconstruction, the statement about government assistance specifically for establishing small businesses in the Southern states may not accurately reflect the historical reality. Many former slaves faced significant barriers, including systemic racism and economic hardship, when trying to establish businesses.

  3. Immigrants and 'green' areas: The idea that immigrants wanted to establish farms and grow cash crops might apply to specific regions or groups. However, the context of the migration of African Americans as part of the Great Migration does not primarily involve immigrants but rather suggests a movement based on escape from oppression.

  4. Increased immigration through the southern border: This statement is somewhat misleading in the context of the Great Migration, which primarily dealt with internal migration within the United States rather than immigration from outside the country.

Without the specific visual information from the map, I would recommend focusing on the dominant theme of the Great Migration involving millions of African Americans moving from the South to the North in search of freedom and better opportunities.

Thus, if you must select one statement as correct based on general knowledge, it would likely be the one about the Great Migration itself, but keep in mind that context is critical, and I advise verifying it against the map's content.
