WWl

More than 350,000 African Americans served in segregated units during World War I, mostly as support troops. Several units saw action alongside French soldiers fighting against the Germans, and 171 African Americans were awarded the French Legion of Honor.
WWII

Despite a high enlistment rate in the U.S. Army, African Americans were not treated equally. At parades, church services, in transportation and canteens the races were kept separate. A quota of only 48 nurses was set for African-American women, and the women were segregated from white nurses and white soldiers for much of the war. Eventually more black nurses enlisted. They were assigned to care for black soldiers. Black nurses were integrated into everyday life with their white colleagues. The first African-American woman sworn into the Navy Nurse Corps was Phyllis Mae Dailey, a Columbia University student from New York. She was the first of only four African-American women to serve as a Navy nurse during World War II.

Brown vs Board of education was considered as the landmark decision which was made by the Supreme court of the United States in the year 1950. This case started when a girl named Linda Brown who used to study in third grade and belonged to the black community had to walk more than a mile every day to reach her school which was made for segregated children whereas we talk about the school for the white children then it was only seven blocks away as during that period of time students of black and white community were not allowed to study in the same school.

Parents of Linda Brown wanted her to study in elementary school made for whites and many parents along with the father of Linda Brown asked for admission of their children in schools for white but the principal of that school denied their request and this case further accelerated and went to the supreme court as their stand was the schools were not following the rule of 'Separate but Equal'.
