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. Following the war, emboldened by
their military service and their support of the war on the home
front, African Americans were determined to fight for equality.
These two factors forced America to confront the impact of
segregation and racism.
