    The Great Migration was one of the most significant demographic shifts in American history. Between 1916 and 1970, more than six million African Americans left the rural South and moved to urban areas in the North, Midwest, and West. This movement not only changed the lives of the people who migrated but also reshaped the cultural, political, and economic fabric of the United States. 
    For many African Americans, life in the South was marked by racial discrimination, economic hardship, and constant threats of violence. Jim Crow laws enforced segregation in every aspect of public life, from schools and transportation to housing and employment. Black families lived under the constant fear of lynching and racial terror. Economically, most African Americans were trapped in sharecropping or low-wage labor, with little opportunity for advancement. 
    At the same time, the North offered a vision of hope. Industrial cities like Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, and New York had booming economies, especially during World War I and World War II, when labor shortages opened up jobs in steel mills, factories, and railroads. Though racism still existed in the North, it was often less openly violent, and African Americans had more chances to organize, vote, and build communities. This combination of “push” and “pull” factors drove millions to pack up and seek a better future.

    The early 20th century marked a transformative period in military history, where the introduction of flight reshaped the very nature of warfare. Prior to this, battles were fought on the ground and at sea, with strategy revolving around infantry, artillery, and naval power. However, as aviation technology advanced rapidly, it presented military commanders with new opportunities and challenges that would forever alter how conflicts were conducted. 
      
    At the outset of World War I, the concept of aerial combat was in its infancy. Airplanes were initially seen as reconnaissance tools, providing vital intelligence for ground forces. Yet, it didn’t take long for the potential of aircraft to be realized in more aggressive terms. Pioneers such as the Wright brothers had already demonstrated the possibilities of flight, but the practical application of aircraft in combat was a game-changer. The skies above the battlefield soon became a new front, and aviation quickly proved indispensable in both strategic and tactical operations. 
      
    The early airmen of World War I were explorers of a new domain, and their role would evolve from mere observers to active participants in combat. The introduction of fighter aircraft, along with advancements in technology like the machine gun, turned the skies into a dangerous and dynamic environment. Aerial dogfights became iconic moments of the war, and the stakes of air superiority were made clear. As aircraft became faster, more maneuverable, and capable of carrying greater payloads, they not only impacted the outcome of individual battles but also began to influence the strategic decisions of entire nations.
