You're making such a huge claim with no data to back it up.
Yes some northern blacks have southern accents because their parents were originally from the south and migrated to northern states.
I am black from Philly. My paternal grandparents migrated from south Carolina so they had accents. But my dad and his siblings do not have southern accents. They all have mid Atlantic accents like lost people in Philly do.
My maternal grandparents are from the north so no southern accents.
I really don't know where you're getting most blacks have southern accents from.
