∙ 15y agoIn large part, the reason for the race riots of the 1940s was a result of World War II. The racism in the United States a the time was so pronounced, that Axis (German and Italian prisoners-of-war) POWs were in many cases treated better than the Black servicemen and -women.
Also Black servicemen returning from that war had been treated with more respect on foreign soil (as had happened after World War I), and now felt that they had earned the right to be treated equally by putting their lives on the line for their country. It was an insult to them that they should return to a country that appeared, in many ways, ungrateful for their sacrifice. The black community rallied and started to demand more rights. They had always felt that they were treated unfairly, but now they saw the futility of waiting for change. They knew they would have to effect the change themselves if they were to ever achieve the status they desired.
