Explain how events during world war 2 set the stage for the rise of modern civil rights movement

History

sergey [27]4 years ago

Answer:

World War II laid the groundwork for the modern Civil Rights movement because it exposed black troops to living conditions and Europe and made the juxtaposition of fighting for democracy abroad given the Jim Crow conditions at home well-defined. The postwar period also witnessed Black soldiers assuming a major role in Civil Rights activity. Medgar Evers is an excellent example of this type of activism. He became the Field Secretary for the NAACP in Mississippi. The war also exposed the fallacy of Aryanism, the notion of a master race and demonstrated what could happen when these ideas were utilized in the state. Nazi Germany totally discredited the idea of Jim Crow and led to gradual changes in the United states.
