During the war, many African Americans
A) gained equal rights because of their military service.
B) served in segregated units in the military.
C) were removed from jobs in war industries and the military.
D) volunteered to serve in the military without pay.

Respuesta :

Pretty sure your answer is B. They didn't get equal rights until the 60's, I don't believe they were removed from jobs, and I'm fairly certain they wouldn't have done work without pay (The Great Migration is a good example of that).

African Americans as slaves and free blacks served on both sides during the war. Gary Nash reports that recent research concludes there were about 9,000 black Patriot soldiers, counting the Continental Army and Navy, and state militia units, as well as privateers, wagoneers in the Army, servants to officers, and spies. So what answer best describes this?
