Great Migrations: A People on The Move

Haitian Migration to the US

Season 1 Episode 4 | 7m 14s

Beginning in the 1970s, South Florida saw a wave of asylum-seeking Haitians fleeing political repression, which would reveal remaining bias and inconsistency in the American immigration system.

Corporate support for GREAT MIGRATIONS: A PEOPLE ON THE MOVE is provided by Bank of America, Ford Motor Company and Johnson & Johnson. Major support is provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Support is also provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the Ford Foundation. Additional support was provided by the Inkwell Society together with many of its members, and by public television viewers.
