Sample Book Insights:
#1 I became interested in the government’s racial policies in the San Francisco Bay Area during World War II, when the area was home to the most extensive shipbuilding complex in the nation.
#2 During World War II, the influx of workers in Richmond, California, resulted in the city’s black population soaring from 270 to 14,000.
#3 The federal government built public housing for African Americans in Richmond, which was segregated. The housing was poorly constructed and intended to be temporary, but it remained that way for decades.
#4 During World War II, the government collaborated with private groups to segregate Richmond. The United Services Organization maintained separate black and white clubs in Richmond for military personnel, and the police arrested and jailed African American men if they could not prove they were employed.
