What was the impact of World War 1 on the US?

Socially I think that the great migration had a big effect on African Americans. African Americans migrated to escape the widespread racism of the South, to seek out employment opportunities in urban environments, and to pursue what was widely perceived to be a "better life" in the North {in other words African Americans drifted from the South to the north not only to get away from Jim Crow laws but to also get better job opportunities}. Also a boll weevil infestation that had destroyed many African Americans crops in the south made it hard for blacks to provide money and with out income there was no way to feed there families so hundreds of thousands of African Americans packed up there life's and headed up north. Packed up THEIR LIVES. Back to 1st grade for you.
