World War I began in 1914, though the United States did not join until 1917 when it needed larger forces. Over 2 million African Americans registered for the draft during World War I, with 367,000 called into service both stateside and overseas. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People advocated for equal treatment of African American soldiers during World War I and worked to boost their morale. Despite facing discrimination, African American units such as the 369th Infantry Regiment, known as the "Harlem Hellfighters", served with distinction in Europe.

Staar 06 america in world war i1
World War 1 started in 1914 in Europe due to rising nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and alliances that pulled nations into war. The U.S. remained neutral until 1917 when German attacks on merchant ships and the Zimmerman Telegram led the U.S. to join the Allies. After the war, President Wilson's Fourteen Points and League of Nations proposal failed due to isolationist sentiment in the U.S., which rejected the Treaty of Versailles and membership in the League.
Pageant 13th Ch 30 lecture
The document discusses the United States entry into World War I in 1917 and its involvement in the war, including the establishment of the Committee on Public Information to promote propaganda for the war, the implementation of the draft, and the impact of the war on various groups. It also covers Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points, the American war effort, and the aftermath of the war including the Treaty of Versailles and Wilson's failure to get the treaty ratified by the US Senate.
African-Americans in the Great War
1) In 1917, over 2 million Black men registered for the military draft after the U.S. entered WWI. However, they faced discrimination as draft boards were all-white and most Black soldiers were relegated to labor units rather than combat roles.
2) Black leader W.E.B. Du Bois urged Black Americans to support the war effort in the hopes it would lead to greater racial equality after the war. However, Black soldiers continued to face Jim Crow laws and poor treatment, even while serving.
3) The war and Great Migration that resulted opened new economic opportunities for Black Americans in Northern cities, but hopes for improved social and political conditions after the war were not fully realized. Discrimin

2) Black leader W.E.B. Du Bois urged Black Americans to support the war effort in the hopes it would lead to greater racial equality after the war.
3) When Black soldiers returned from war, they hoped their military service would end discrimination like Jim Crow laws. However, little changed and racism persisted.

- World War 1 erupted in Europe in 1914 due to imperialism and nationalism in several European powers. Americans initially wanted to remain neutral but were drawn into the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies.
- Over 2 million African Americans registered for the draft despite racism in the US military. Black troops faced discrimination, unequal treatment, and Jim Crow conditions. However, they served with distinction overseas, with the 369th Infantry regiment becoming the first Americans to reach the Rhine river.
- Black soldiers proved themselves in combat but still faced slander and were denied honors like the Medal of Honor awarded to white soldiers. Their service helped advance the cause of civil rights at home despite facing discrimination.

Ww1 home front5
During World War 1, the U.S. government took unprecedented steps to mobilize resources and public support for the war effort. This included establishing new government agencies to oversee war production, food and fuel rationing, propaganda campaigns, and censorship of anti-war speech. It also led to economic growth and social changes like the migration of black workers to industrial jobs in the North. However, these wartime measures also undermined civil liberties and led to a post-war "Red Scare" targeting radical groups.

It describes how the U.S. government gained expanded powers and implemented the draft to raise troops.

Social Impact of WWII
During World War II, many African Americans, Mexican Americans, Native Americans, Japanese Americans, and women faced discrimination but also sought new opportunities. The war economy led to an increased demand for labor across many groups. However, racial minorities and women still faced significant challenges such as segregation, unequal treatment, and hostility in their new roles. Executive orders and advocacy helped promote equality and civil rights, but full equality remained elusive.
Chapter 18 double v
International tensions and the rise of militarism in Germany and Italy led to World War 2. During the war, over 500,000 African Americans served, though they faced widespread discrimination in the military and worked to promote civil rights on the home front. The establishment of organizations like the FEPC and training programs helped address discrimination and resulted in over 100,000 African Americans gaining new employment in defense industries by 1943. However, racial tensions and inequality persisted both during and after the war.
Ch 21 section 2
The U.S. entered WWI with a relatively small army that would need to be rapidly expanded through conscription. The Selective Service Act established the draft of all men between 21-30. While some women volunteered as nurses or in clerical roles, others opposed U.S. entry into the war. The military, industry, and civilian efforts mobilized to support the war through expanded production, conservation campaigns, patriotic drives, and suppression of dissent, though these measures sometimes infringed on civil liberties. Racial minorities faced discrimination but also sought opportunities in the military or factories.

The American Homefront
During World War 2, the American home front saw many changes. Over 10 million men were drafted or volunteered for military service known as GIs. Women entered the workforce in large numbers and some joined the military in non-combat roles. African Americans faced continued discrimination but also gained new opportunities, with over 1 million serving in segregated military units. Additionally, 112,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly relocated to internment camps due to racism and fears of sabotage. Native Americans also saw high rates of military service while Mexican agricultural workers immigrated to the US to address labor shortages under the Bracero Program.
APUSH Lecture - Election of 1912, Wilson and WWI
The 1912 US presidential election saw Republicans nominate incumbent William Howard Taft, while Democrats chose Woodrow Wilson and former president Theodore Roosevelt ran as part of the Progressive ("Bull Moose") Party. Wilson campaigned on a "New Freedom" platform and defeated both Taft and Roosevelt. As president, Wilson oversaw the passage of important progressive reforms and took the US into World War I in 1917. The war led to expanded government powers and curbs on civil liberties. Wilson advocated for a postwar peace without victory, but was unable to convince others to fully adopt his Fourteen Points plan. The resulting Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany, and Wilson struggled to gain its ratification in the US Senate.
