Many African Americans migrated to the North during World War I primarily **to search for war-related work**. This period, known as the Great Migration, saw a significant movement of African Americans from the rural South to urban areas in the North as they sought better job opportunities in factories and industries that were booming due to the war effort. The demand for labor increased as many white workers left their jobs to enlist in the military, leading to openings in manufacturing and other sectors. This migration was also fueled by the desire to escape the oppressive conditions of the Jim Crow South.
