The Great Migration Vol. 5 — Go West: The Second Migration and the California Dream (STANDARD COMPANION EDITION — Interactive)

Black history books for readers, classrooms, and homeschool — The Great Migration Vol. 5: Go West: The Second Migration and the California Dream (STANDARD COMPANION EDITION). The larger second wave west — defense work and shipyards, Central Avenue and Seventh Street, Houston as a city that also received, and the western bargain. Executive Order 8802 (1941) opened defense jobs; it did not desegregate the armed forces, and the FEPC it created had hearings and publicity but no enforcement power. The Sugar Hill housing fight was won in Los Angeles Superior Court in December 1945, and Proposition 14 passed on November 3, 1964 with 65 percent of the vote before the courts struck it down. The standard adult edition. Inside the Interactive Edition: the complete book — all 6 chapters, full text · recorded narration by Marcus — 75 minutes 31 seconds, every chapter read aloud · a chronological timeline that jumps to the chapter behind each date · a 10-question educator quiz drawn strictly from the text · every chapter closes with its sources and a method note — contested numbers are printed as attributed ranges, never as tidy single figures. The chapters: 1940: The Door Opens Again · The West Coast Stream: From Louisiana and Texas to California · Shipyards and Defense Towns: Oakland, Richmond, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland · Central Avenue and Watts; Seventh Street and West Oakland · Houston and the Cities That Were Both: The South That Also Received · The Western Bargain: Sunshine, Covenants, and 1965.
