Answer:

  • Forces of evil overseas - Countries that establish policies against the USA
  • Forces of evil in the United States - Governmental laws that encourage discrimination against African American citizens and racist white people who abuse African American citizens.

Explanation:

The author shows, through this excerpt, that he has an immense desire to see the US becoming a powerful and infallible nation. For this, he wants the USA to defeat the forces of evil inside and outside the country.

As an American citizen, the author believes that the forces of evil outside the country are the countries that establish policies that are against the USA, that is, enemy countries. However, as an African-American citizen, he believes that there are forces of evil within the country. These forces are raised, when laws that encourage discrimination against black people are allowed to be established. Furthermore, he believes that these forces are also manifested in racist white people who mistreat blacks and act with social discrimination.
