Summary:
The Great Migration is a unique, ongoing digitization service program that partners the National Museum of African American History and Culture with individuals across the United States to preserve their important analog audiovisual media.
While major motion picture film and television historically lacked diverse representation, black history was instinctively being preserved in everyday home movies. Today, these personal narratives serve as an invaluable tool for understanding and re-framing black moving image history, and provide a much needed visualization of African American history and culture.
Scope and Contents:
The collection contains 825 digitized audiovisual media objects. However, as an ongoing project the scope of the collection will continue to increase over time. The scope will be updated as is appropriate.
The content of the collection consists predominantly of amateur recordings created by families to document their lives. This includes major life events, such as birthdays and weddings, quotidian life, as well as family vacations and holidays.
Arrangement:
The collection is arranged into file, and item-level records. Each file corresponds to a family that has participated in the Great Migration program. Each item within a file corresponds to a single piece of audiovisual media, such as a film or videotape, digitized by NMAAHC staff.
Provenance:
NMAAHC creates and retains digital copies, 2016-[ongoing]. Original analog materials are not retained by the museum.
Restrictions:
Collection is available online for open research.

8. … of Cornell University buildings and scenery; and
9. … of visitors at 4215 Third Street NW, Washington, DC.
00:00 – 02:07 minutes
Frederick M. Leigh filmed scenes of a visit to the National Zoo in Washington, DC. Scenes feature Frederick M. Leigh, Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh, and Wilhelmina Leigh, as well as animals in the National Zoo.
02:07 – 03:43 minutes
Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh, and Wilhelmina Leigh sightsee near the U.S. Capitol, the U.S. Supreme Court building, and one of the Library of Congress buildings.
03:43 – 07:32 minutes Frederick M. Leigh shovels snow in the front and the back of the Leigh family house at 4215 Third Street, NW, Washington, DC. This snow fell as a result of the North American Blizzard of 1966, which dumped 12 inches atop 4 inches already on the ground in DC from a previous storm. Wilhelmina Leigh (in coat and scarf) comes up the stairs that Frederick M. Leigh is shoveling in the front of the house.
07:33 – 8:02 minutes Footage of buildings cannot be identified.
08:02 – 11:08 minutes Frederick M. Leigh, Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh, and Wilhelmina Leigh were filmed in various settings in Atlantic City, NJ, and in other locales that cannot be identified.
11:08 – 14:43 minutes Scenes were filmed in Roanoke, VA, where Frederick M. and Velma D. Leigh were visiting relatives and friends – including Mrs. Elizabeth Fishburn, her daughter Susie Mae Holland, Alphonso Holland, Effie Dunnaville (mother of Velma Dunnaville Leigh), and other individuals who cannot be identified. Additional scenes feature Jacqueline Leigh and Wilhelmina Leigh playing with their second cousins, the Lewis children – Chrystella, Adrian, Gary, and Rodney.
14:43 – 17:45 minutes Frederick M. Leigh, Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh, and Wilhelmina Leigh ("the Leigh family") were in Boston, MA, as tourists – riding the swan boats, and visiting the Soldiers and Sailors Monument on the Boston Common dedicated to the memory of Massachusetts soldiers who died in the American Civil War. Construction of the monument began in 1874, and it was dedicated on September 17, 1877. The base of the monument bears the following inscription:
TO THE MEN OF BOSTON
WHO DIED FOR THEIR COUNTRY
ON LAND AND SEA IN THE WAR
WHICH KEPT THE UNION WHOLE
DESTROYED SLAVERY
AND MAINTAINED THE CONSTITUTION
THE GRATEFUL CITY
HAS BUILT THIS MONUMENT
THAT THEIR EXAMPLE MAY SPEAK
TO COMING GENERATIONS
The "Leigh family" also visited relatives in Boston, MA. They visited the service station (Lay and Hicks Flying A Station, 428 Warren Street, Roxbury, MA), then operated by James Edward Lay, brother of Frederick M. Leigh. Lay/Leigh family scenes were captured in the living room of the Lay family house at 13 Maywood Street, Roxbury, MA 02119. This footage includes John and Oelia Wood Lay; the Leigh family; James Edward Lay (brother of Frederick M. Leigh) and his wife Lillian Lay and son James Edward Lay Jr.; and LeRoi Ambers (nephew of Frederick M. Leigh and of James Edward Lay) with Carol Tabor, the girlfriend of LeRoi. (NB: John and Oelia Wood Lay were the: parents of Frederick M. Leigh and James Edward Lay, the in-laws of Velma D. Leigh, and the grandparents of Jacqueline and Wilhelmina Leigh.)
17:46 – 18:56 minutes Wilhelmina Leigh and Jacqueline Leigh posed in front of the Brunswick Inn, a Steak Pub and Manor House. I am unsure when and where this footage was taken. An "Honors House" at some college or university appears in one scene. My guess is that these scenes were taken during a college visit tour on which the Leigh family went prior to the high school graduation of Wilhelmina Leigh.
18:56 – 20:20 minutes Dinner meal at the Leigh family house at 4215 Third Street NW, Washington, DC, with: Charles Jones (boyfriend of Jacqueline Leigh), Jacqueline Leigh, Effie Dunnaville (mother of Velma D. Leigh), Frederick M. Leigh, Velma D. Leigh, and Wilhelmina Leigh (who stuck her tongue out at one point during the segment).
20:20 – 21:42 minutes Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh and Wilhelmina Leigh posed in front of buildings at Hampton Institute (Hampton, VA), during a visit to the school when Jacqueline Leigh was a sophomore. Blank tape is interspersed with footage of Velma, Jacqueline, and Wilhelmina at Hampton.
21:42 – 23:00 minutes Scenes of a football game at Hampton Institute (Hampton, VA) were filmed. Although Hampton (white uniforms with blue helmets) is one of the teams playing, I am unable to identify their opponent. Maroon and orange (the colors worn by Hampton's opponent in this game) are the colors of Claflin University (Orangeburg, SC). However, this school's football team played its last game on November 21, 1964. (http://thetandd.com/news/panther-football-from-the-ashes-of-a-sports-program-claflin/article_5269aaa3-051d-5ed9-a6ba-638d888674c1.html) It is possible that Claflin played Hampton in 1965, but I have no way of knowing. During the half-time of this game, the Hampton Institute band (in blue uniforms with a touch of white) and cheerleaders and/or majorettes performed, and there were speakers.
23:04 – 23:12 seconds On Christmas day, Velma D. Leigh and Wilhelmina Leigh posed near the tree in the living room at the Leigh family house at 4215 Third Street, NW, Washington, DC.
23:12 – 23:40 minutes Footage taken outside McKinley Technical High School, Washington, DC, at the 1966 graduation of Wilhelmina Leigh (in white cap and gown) includes: 1. Wilhelmina Leigh walking with mother (Velma D. Leigh) and sister (Jacqueline Leigh) 2. Rita Smith (another McKinley '66 graduate) speaking to Wilhelmina Leigh 3. Frederick M. Leigh walking with daughter Wilhelmina Leigh
23:40 – 24:39 minutes John and Oelia Wood Lay walk beside their house at 13 Maywood Street, Roxbury, MA 02119, and then sit on the front steps of the house, where they are joined by Velma D. Leigh and daughter Jacqueline Leigh.
24:40 – 30:00 Frederick M. Leigh exits the Howard Johnson Motor Lodge near Cornell University and checks on his car. Velma D. Leigh, Jacqueline Leigh and Wilhelmina Leigh appear in scenes taken in and around Cornell University. One scene includes Mary Donlon Hall, the dormitory in which Wilhelmina Leigh lived during her freshman year (1966-1967) at the university. Other campus buildings in the footage include Helen Newman Gymnasium, Balch Hall, Baker Laboratory, Clara Dickson Hall, and the chapel. Jacqueline and Wilhelmina Leigh pose near Cayuga Lake. The duo also poses with their mother in front of the statue of Ezra Cornell. Several unidentified buildings at the university appear in the footage, as well.
30:00 – 30:30 minutes Velma D. Leigh, Theresa Smith (a friend of Frederick M. and Velma D. Leigh), and an unidentified man (who accompanied Ms. Smith on her visit to the Leighs) are filmed while leaving the Leigh family house at 4215 Third Street, NW, Washington, DC.

Scenes at Hampton Institute during Fall Homecoming, Fall 1966
00:00 – 01:59 minutes
Scenes are of the Fall 1966 Hampton Institute Homecoming Parade – featuring floats, cars, military units, and marching bands. The Trojans marching band of Carver High School (Newport News, VA) participated, as did another Newport News band, whose flag moved too much for me to read its name. Numerous organizations – including the Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA) Sorority – had floats in the parade. One of the floats featured a huge champagne glass.
01:59 – 02:06 minutes
Blank
02:06 – 02:55 minutes
Homecoming Parade scenes – including a float with what appears to be a papier mâché bull – were filmed.
02:55 – 03:15 minutes
Jacqueline Leigh, who pledged the AKA sorority in 1966 at Hampton Institute, stands on the lawn in front of Ogden Hall near a display set up by the AKAs for Homecoming. The display is painted pink and green (AKA colors) and features a wooden male pirate figure and a wooden female figure holding opposite ends of an infinity symbol. The following words are painted on the infinity symbol's loops: "Be Lively, Be Gay, Join the Mardi Gras with the AKAs." (NB: A male pirate is featured in the display because Hampton's football team is known as the Pirates. I guess that Mardi Gras was the theme for the Homecoming that year.)
03:15 – 03:21 minutes
Views of the Clock Tower and adjacent buildings on the campus of Hampton Institute were captured on film.
03:21 – 04:04 minutes
A helicopter provided by WTAR Radio lands on the football field during a game between Hampton Institute and Fisk University. Two unidentified dignitaries emerge from the helicopter and walk onto the field to a microphone and speak to the Homecoming game audience.
