Back in Stock! Jacob Lawrence's 'Migration Series'

Featured here is panel 58 of Jacob Lawrence's 1940–41 multi-panel masterwork, The Migration Series, Back in Stock from MoMA at a time when our country is addressing issues of civil rights, antiracism and migration with fresh energy. This particular panel is captioned: "In the North the Negro had better educational facilities." Elsewhere in the book Lawrence is quoted, looking back on the darkest days of slavery from the vantage of 1940: "We don't have a physical slavery, but an economic slavery. If these people, who were so much worse off than people today, could conquer their slavery, we certainly can do the same… I'm an artist, just trying to do my part to bring this thing about."
