Answer: We can point out several positions. At home they were part of the defensive jobs, working in industries and military bases, and also promoting civil rights while supporting the war effort. In the war front, they also joined the armed forces, but in racially segregated forces.

The construction of military bases and the influx of new personnel transformed the local economies. The construction of military bases and the influx of new personnel transformed the local economies, this demand produced a high demand for southern textile mills, giving many African Americans the chance to leave the farms and gain a steady wage.

About a million African Americans—men and  women—served in the armed forces during the war, but in racially segregated units. Black soldiers and sailors were initially excluded from combat  units and relegated to menial tasks. Several campaigns were launched during wartime, like the Double V campaign promoted by the Pittsburgh Courier, encouraging blacks to support the war effort while fighting for civil rights and racial equality at home.
