Answer: the correct answer is banned discrimination in the armed services

Explanation: just after two weeks of the 1948 Democratic National Convention, Truman issued Executive Order 9981, racially integrating the U.S. Armed Services and Executive Order 9980 to integrate federal agencies. Executive Order 9981 is an executive order issued on July 26, 1948, by President Harry S. Truman. It abolished discrimination "on the basis of race, color, religion or national origin" in the United States Armed Forces. The executive order eventually led to the end of segregation in the services.

Answer 2

Banned discrimination in the armed services.

Step-by-step explanation:

African-Americans experienced some amount of improvement in civil rights thanks to President Truman. He desegregated the military and the federal government with Executive Orders 9980 and 9981.

Executive Order 9980 began by saying, "The principles on which our Government is based require a policy of fair employment throughout the Federal establishment, without discrimination because of race, color, religion, or national origin."

Executive Order 9981 stated: "There shall be equality of treatment and opportunity for all persons in the armed forces without regard to race, color, religion, or national origin."
