World War 1 was America's first war and was caused by rivalry. There are also some more reasons that historians said caused WW1. World War 1 was really time were African Americans doing big things in this little period. Some were good and others not so much. In my opinion, this war a trial and error for African Americans. It opened up doorways and closed some. The war was also a transition for everyone. It was a change to how the whites were seeing African Americans and how they were changing how people saw them. With all the jobs blacks got during the war to the soldiers. Not only men were affected neither, it was also women. Not only were all blacks judged they all made a impact on the war, and yes so did the women. Women did many things in the war and around the war to help support their race. African Americans did a lot during the war and around the war.
A image of the Harlem Hellfighters was an African American unit that spent the most time in combat than any other African American unit.
