Celebrate Black History with Jacob Lawrence's 'Migration Series'

Panel 58 of Jacob Lawrence's 1940–41 multi-panel masterwork, The Migration Series, is captioned: "In the North the Negro had better educational facilities." In honor of migrants and refugees everywhere, as well as Black History Month here in the United States, we are featuring this MoMA classic today. "We don't have a physical slavery, but an economic slavery," Lawrence said in 1940. "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."
