Beskrivelse

In one of the few book-length treatments of the subject, Nina Mjagkij conveys the full range of the African American experience during the Great War. Prior to World War I, most African Americans did not challenge the racial status quo. But nearly 370,000 black soldiers served in the military during the war, and some 400,000 black civilians migrated from the rural South to the urban North for defense jobs.

These two factors forced America to confront the impact of segregation and racism.
