because just like the african americans the jews were enslaved and experienced genocide. this act made many people rise up to support civil rights and made it a popular thing that everyone should be equal to prevent tragic things like this from happening again since we are all human and should be equal.

such as payroll, living environments, weapons used, etc. they had everything the same and received the same respect for their actions. but the main stuff is what i already said, how the jews were so similar to the african americans - with this many people also feared something similar could happen to the african americans making more and more people for the we are all equal thingy
siggy now |

| The thing is you have the quote 'Seperate but equal.' they were segregated from Whites and not allowed the go to 'white' places such as the cinema and schools and things like cafe's etc. |

My answer so far:
There was a growth in the Civil Rights Movement because, many white people respected the armed forces, so if the white people in the armed forces were abel to tolerate standing side by side to those of a different racial background then why cant they.
Furthermore in the armed forces the African-Americans were allowed to use the same weaponry and were given the same treatment to those whom were white.
Outside of the war those of whom were African-American received better living conditions and better salaries for their job, this is because. |

It does not make much sense
black people were allowed to fight just as white people were
and if you guys actually researched this time period you would learn that blacks had some issues in the military. |

Furthermore, in the armed forces the African-Americans were allowed to use the same weaponry and were given similar medical treatment to those whom were white. Although there was less de-segregation in the camps there was still racism and many fights occurred within the said camps.

| @own1000 please stop im dying ur post is so inaccurate, before WWII they were not allowed to fight in it because of de-segregation maybe if you listened in class instead of flaunting over some guy you would know. |
