To determine which types of discrimination African Americans faced in the Union army, we can analyze each option provided.
A. They were not allowed to serve as officers.
This statement is correct. African Americans were initially prohibited from serving as officers in the Union army. It wasn't until later in the war that a small number of African American officers were commissioned.
B. They were not eligible to win high awards, such as the Congressional Medal of Honor.
This statement is not entirely accurate. While African Americans did face challenges in receiving recognition for their service, there were some cases where they were awarded high honors. However, discrimination did exist, and it wasn't until the late 20th century that many African American soldiers from the Civil War were retroactively awarded the Medal of Honor.
C. They were not paid the same as white soldiers until after the war ended.
This statement is also correct. African American soldiers in the Union army faced unequal pay compared to their white counterparts until the end of the war in 1865. It was only after the war that Congress passed legislation equalizing their pay.
D. They were not allowed to serve in units with white soldiers.
This statement is not entirely accurate. African American soldiers initially served in segregated units known as the United States Colored Troops (USCT). However, by the end of the war, some regiments became more integrated, and African American soldiers were occasionally assigned to serve alongside white soldiers.
Based on the explanations provided, the correct options for the discrimination faced by African Americans in the Union army are:
A. They were not allowed to serve as officers.
C. They were not paid the same as white soldiers until after the war ended.
D. They were not allowed to serve in units with white soldiers.
