    Economic opportunities in industrialized cities are one of the important pull factors that led to the African-Americans to migrate from South to North.

    Option-B

    Explanation:

    Great Migration was a relocation movement of African-American population from rural South to North for the want of opportunities. This movement happened between 1916-1970.

    After world war broke out in Europe during 1914, industrialized areas available in North and West faced labour shortages and thus led to the gradual migration of Africans from European countries to the United States.

    During World War, Whites were busy involved in War and that created an opportunity for Africans to move to industrialized area. In 1942, there was plethora of job opportunities available in North region such as NewYork, Chicago, Detroit and Pittsburgh.
