Abstract
Douglas also describes the sporadic efforts to legislate racial tolerance, focusing specifically on the impact of southern black migration to the North before and after World War I. Focusing on the pull of improved economic opportunities, Douglas skillfully provides insight into the complicated nature of black-white relations as he argues that the influx of southern black migrants exacerbated racial tensions "and many white school officials who had tolerated school integration when the number of African Americans was relatively small began to insist on racial separation."
