I would like to see the movement by a decade. Especially now that a lot of black people are moving south due to more racism in the north. Reversal of previous movement trends.

Cool Map! This might be one of those situations where the absolute population may tell a different story. I am speculating that the absolute population tended to shift NW more than this graph suggestions, but the counties that had primarily Black populations just tended to stay Black b/c Whites didn’t move there and thus didn’t tip the proportions.

Crazy to look at this and remember that the black population prior to the 1920-1930s was concentrated almost entirely in the south and it still looks heavily their by looking at this. I think doing this by the county may skewer that though.

In reply to Dave. This graph shows proportion, not absolute number. So, I am calling you racist for not noting the truth actually. You will likely then just construe that is still justifying your point, then I would still think your belief is silly, and back and forth. But I may suggest, if you think to yourself "does this belief make me look like as asshole" then it probably does.

Mississippi ranks dead last and nearly everything from educations to two parent families etc and California generally ranks 49th …. No one will point it out but Mississippi has the most blacks and California the most Hispanics … oh sure call me a racist for noting the the truth.
