During the 1930s black were already discriminated against and when the country hit the Great Depression it only got worse. White male employment was the first priority to many so blacks would have a hard time finding jobs. They often lived in the poorest districts and were paid less than white people doing the same job. Futher-more during the 1930s there was still segregation in almost everything from waterfountains to which door you could walk into. After the Great Depression few blacks could find work and only 5% of blacks have 'well paid' jobs compared to 30% of whites. Also in President Rooservelt made an anti-lynching Bill however it was attacked by the southern politicians and six weeks later it was removed.
Not all was bad for the Black Americans since in the 30s the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) Provided 200,000 jobs for black people.
However despite this things did not really improve for the black Americans till the Second World War when with the Double V campaign alot of black Americans gained more equal rights in the work place and also at the start of the war all the armed forces were segregated however by 1945 there are 600 black pilots in the air force and in 1946 the Navy is desegregated and all the forces are desegregated by 1947.
