Two big ones: In combat zones, while appreciated by their fellow soldiers, they were used by the Army mostly as the hewers of wood and drawers of water. Back home in the States, they were treated abominably by white citizens in the South. German POW's interned in the United States were treated much better - by eyewitness account after eyewitness account.

Generally speaking this war did not discriminate between races or ethnic groups when it came to placing soldiers in any particular theater of war. What might be considered a risk as example would be to place "Italian - Americans in the invasion of Sicily. This did not occur, nor would a "Black soldier" be placed or not placed in any type of battle, wherever the location might be.
