African-Americans were welcomed into certain branches of the armed forces in this war, but, like other wars, there was discrimination and segregation. Soldiers still fought in segregated units throughout the war, but there were advances in the number of commissioned officers. Other forms of racism included barring African-Americans from the Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Army Air Corps, and the Navy only allowed African-Americans as mess men. These conditions were not promising, and these policies have been called “Jim Crow military”. Some changes were made with the 1940 Selective Service Training Act which stated that all men between 18 and 36, regardless of race, were eligible to volunteer in naval and ground forces without fear of discrimination. It also prohibited racial and/or color discrimination in selection and training of military personnel. This act attempted to change the makeup of the military, but it did not address the underlying issues present such as stereotypes and racism.
African-American soldiers noted the irony and hypocrisy of fighting for freedom and democracy in Europe when they could not enjoy those same privileges in their own country. This sentiment led to the Double V campaign which worked to end discrimination at home and ensure democracy abroad. At home this movement was maintained by discrimination in the defense industries and labor unions; racist housing practices were also noted and attempts to change these were part of the Double V campaign. African-American rights were directly tied to European emancipation.

India is a country located in Asia, often seen mistakenly seen as a poor country and stereotyped. In reality, it has a great culture and celebrates many holidays to honor everyday things such as Holi, a celebration of colors, or Diwali the celebration of lights. It has a great history and was long ago took over by the British after the Sepoy rebellion when they lost control India ended up divided, two major countries that stand out from that division is mainland India and Pakistan. Today in India the language spoken most commonly is Hindi but others such as Gujarati, Tamil, Punjabi are all used. Most people there are Hindu but Shikisam, Buddhism, and Islam occupy India as well. Amanda should not of assumed India is similar to China. Not only is this not true but this assumption puts all Asian countries together. These are stereotypes that are not true. Her assumption was the equivalent of saying America and Europe are the same we very well know they are not.
If im correct it should be culture diversity.
