I chose to perform my main source analysis in The Crisis magazine.Crisis magazine conducted by the NAACP.One of the reasons I chose this article is because I saw the name of WEB Du Bois, whom I recently read on the class blog.Du Bois is the founder of the NAACP as well as editor of The Crisis magazine.The Great War was a strange time for African-Americans, as this was the first important war in which African-Americans participated.I noticed Du Bois supporting African-Americans in the conflict."The Crisis" is a political publication created in July 1919.It is both an advertisement and an article, and it is designed to arouse the fire in the American soul.The fire was sparked by the bizarre number of arrests in public and the mistreatation of blacks as well as other non-white races.The specific article I selected is the advertisement of some fields, the path above.I saw all three of these ads were published in 1918, one mentioning North Carolina, the other two not mentioning specific places.I think the audience originally intended to be Black people who wanted to improve their skills and pursue higher education.The content focuses on the suffering and difficulties that black people face when it comes to pressure to force the Federal government to embargo.Du Bois's editorials are famous for portraying his views, often ahead of time.Topics include women's rights, women's voting rights, equality, Socialist Party principles and anti-war sentiment.This is a system built for and only for white Americans.This is a time of racial disturbance, not only that but also the chaos between men and women.People contradict just because of differences of view, skin color, gender and overall world view.On the specific page quoted above, it says a lot about political activity.These sources are important for people to understand U.S. history, especially the status of black people after World War I.The magazine was published in July 1919, which showed that to improve the status of black people , what Blacks did for themselves.They recognize the importance of education and they are willing to accept new skills to live better, they desire equal rights as white people.
The question here is : Do you think African-American soldiers were treated better during World War II than World War I, if so, what do you believe caused the change?Do you think it's a good idea for African-Americans to join the fight in the name of proving themselves to be white?
