Modern-day Analysis

One thing that happened during the cold war and is still happening today is civil rights. Civial Rights can be racism, discrimination, and or predjudicism. Civil Rights happened during the cold war, like the demand for soldiers in the early 1940's created a storage of white males laborers, which opended up new job opportunities for African Americans, Latios, and white women. About 700,000 African Americans served in the armed forces, which needed so many fighting men that they gradually had to end discriminatory policies that had kept African Americans from serving in the fighting units. During the war, Civil Rights organizations actively campaigned for African American voting rights and challenged Jim Crom Laws. The Civil Rights Act of 1875 outlawed segregation in punlic facilities by decreeing that "all persons...shall be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the accmmodiations." Civil Rights still happen today.You see discrimination at school, you see stealing in stores, and you see discrimination when getting a job. There is so much racism, discriminationm, and predjudicism. If everyone would stop being racist, using discrimination, and quit being predjudicist, then i think that the world would be much better.
