The Negro Migrant In Pittsburgh is a non-fiction book written by Abraham Epstein in 1918. The book focuses on the experiences of African American migrants who moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in search of better economic opportunities during the early 20th century. Epstein, a social worker and sociologist, conducted extensive research and interviews with black migrants to understand their struggles and challenges in the city.The book describes the living and working conditions of African American migrants in Pittsburgh, including their housing, employment, and social lives. Epstein also discusses the racial tensions and discrimination that black migrants faced in the city, including segregation, violence, and prejudice from white residents and authorities.Through his research, Epstein highlights the resilience and determination of black migrants to create a better life for themselves and their families. He also provides recommendations for improving the social and economic conditions of black migrants in Pittsburgh, including better housing, access to education and job training, and an end to racial discrimination.Overall, The Negro Migrant In Pittsburgh is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of African American migrants during a critical period in American history.
