  The Great Migration - African...

  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 sequel nobody wants. After a decade of the Tories, could it get any worse? Spoiler – it does. 
   
  Towards the end of 2021, Britain had been frogmarched into an escalating series of surreal calamities. Brexit was a disaster, the NHS was in crisis, the government was bathed head-to-toe in impropriety, senior Tories were still acting as though the public purse was their personal feed-trough, and the air crackled with anger about PartyGate. All of which led to an inglorious start to 2022: the year the UK saw two monarchs, three prime ministers and four chancellors. 
   
  From Boris Johnson, who crashed our international reputation and handed billions to his mates so they could ineptly fight a pandemic while he stayed at home, shagging and acting as a super-spreader; to Liz Truss, a drive-by prime minister who managed to kill off the queen and crash the economy in a single week. And now we’re led by Rishi Sunak, who doesn’t know how to use a credit card, drives a pretend car, and grinningly promises even more poverty. 
   
  Four Chancellors and a Funeral delivers more of Russell Jones’s signature scathing wit, combining a detailed historical record of 2021 and 2022, with acerbic commentary, all of it leavened by jokes at the seemingly endless maelstrom of failures, nincompoops and hypocrisies.
