520    Four great migrations defined the history of black people 
       in America: the violent removal of Africans to the east 
       coast of North America known as the Middle Passage; the 
       relocation of one million slaves to the interior of the 
       antebellum South; the movement of six million blacks to 
       the industrial cities of the north and west a century 
       later; and, since the late 1960s, the arrival of black 
       immigrants from Africa, the Americas, and Europe. These 
       epic migrations have made and remade African American 
       life. This new account evokes both the terrible price and 
       the moving triumphs of a people forcibly and then 
       willingly migrating to America. Historian Ira Berlin finds
       a dynamic of change in which eras of deep rootedness 
       alternate with eras of massive movement, tradition giving 
       way to innovation. The culture of black America is 
       constantly evolving, affected by (and affecting) places as
       far away from one another as Biloxi, Chicago, Kingston, 
       and Lagos.--From publisher description.
