1) In World War II african americans gained some rights as soildiers due to moving on the North in order to take the place for those who died during the war.
2) At the end of the war they faced opposition by KKK movement.
3) Civil Rights Act gave lots of opportunities in employment and working sphere.
4) Even though they took part in war as soldiers, they were being treated like before while those from the enemy front have far more advantages.
