Rachel tensions within the United States, East in the aftermath of World War 1. As a result of the social and economic gains made by african americans during the war, true or false

True. The social and economic gains made by African Americans during World War 1 contributed to tensions within the United States, particularly in the East. The war effort provided employment opportunities for many African Americans, and they migrated to industrial cities in the North and East to take advantage of the jobs created by the war. This led to increased competition for jobs and housing, which sparked racial tensions and violence, such as the Red Summer of 1919. Additionally, African American soldiers returning from the war after fighting for democracy abroad faced continued segregation and discrimination, leading to further frustration and discontent.
