How Did Ww2 Affect The Right Of Minorities
World War II had a significant impact on the right of minorities in the United States from 1939 to 1945. It greatly affected the lives of women, African Americans, Hispanics, Japanese, Hispanics, as well as other minority groups. Although there were mostly white male Americans fighting in the war, there were other ethnicities also. White men made up 87% of the force, while African Americans made up 11%, and the other two percent was made up of other groups of Americans. Only men fought during the war, but women played an important role too. Women at the time were nurses to the soldiers. Nurses were very much needed considering they were fighting with heavy artillery. Most minorities were more accepted than they had been before World War II.
