    During World War 2, minorities faced racism and discrimination at home even as they contributed to the war effort overseas. African Americans served as pilots in the Tuskegee Airmen and soldiers in segregated units. Japanese Americans served as linguists despite facing internment, where over 110,000 were held in camps. Native American Navajo code talkers provided an unbreakable code that was crucial for communications. However, racial tensions rose as African Americans migrated north and Mexican Americans faced attacks including the Zoot Suit riots. The internment of Japanese Americans based on fears of disloyalty was one of the darkest events and upheld by the Supreme Court despite violating civil rights. Recent history shows similar treatment of minorities still occurs

    you think the country is capable of changing its ideology, or does fear consume logical
    thought? Take 10 mins to write down your thoughts and ideas.
