OverviewThe political, economic and social landscapes of the United States in the early 1940s were split by one overriding factor - race. This volume explores the ways in which this separation extended to the military forces and the impact which that segregation had on World War II. The main focus is the African American role in World War II and the second-class stigma which remained in spite of the proven valor and bravery of colored units. Also included is a list of African American World War II veterans belatedly awarded medals of honor on January 13, 1997. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Bryan D.
