Divisions: A New History of Racism and Resistance in America's World War II Military
Divisions examines racism and resistance in America’s World War II military. The military built not one color line, but a complex tangle of them, involving every imaginable aspect of military life. Who served? Who fought? Who died? Who gave orders and who was forced to follow them? Who received the best ratings and jobs and pay and promotions? Who was court-martialed? Who received furloughs and leaves? Who received honorable or dishonorable disch…
A Martial Freedom Movement: Black G.I.s' Political Struggles during World War II
It just don't make any sense,” exclaimed an African American soldier, training at Camp Shelby in Mississippi in 1942. “We're all in the same army, wearing the same khaki, and they say we're fighting for the same thing. ... [And] when those Japs and Wops start shooting they don't try to find out who is white and who is black before they aim. Yet they draw all kinds of damn fool lines and say ‘black boys on this side, whites on the other.’” The sol…
Searching for Subversives: The Story of Italian Internment in Wartime America
This careful, insightful study explores the U.S. government's treatment of resident Italians during World War II, with emphasis on the internment of several hundred among them. Drawing on meticulous research in numerous archival collections, especially federal records, Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas tells two main stories. On the one hand, she highlights injustice and suffering—the flimsy evidence used to intern some Italians, for example, or the t…

Defining America’s Racial Boundaries: Blacks, Mexicans, and European Immigrants, 1890–1945
Contemporary race and immigration scholars often rely on historical analogies to help them analyze America's current and future color lines. If European immigrants became white, they claim, perhaps today's immigrants can as well. But too often these scholars ignore ongoing debates in the historical literature about America's past racial boundaries. Meanwhile, the historical literature is itself needlessly muddled. In order to address these proble…
Red Cross, Double Cross: Race and America's World War II-Era Blood Donor Service
The American Red Cross Blood Donor Service was a remarkable World War II achievement. From early 1941 through the end of the war, the Red Cross collected blood from millions of donors across America; a dozen laboratories processed it into substitutes called plasma and serum albumin; and the military then shipped these substitutes, and whole blood as well, to service personnel fighting overseas. The entire operation—run jointly by the military and…

White On Arrival: Italians, Race, Color, and Power in Chicago, 1890–1945
Immigrating to the United States, Italians, like all others arriving on America’s shores, were made to fill out a standardized immigration form. In the box for race, they faced two choices: North Italian or South Italian. On the line requesting information on color, they wrote simply “white.” By World War II, the only option they had for race and color questions was “white.” This identification is suggestive of the many ways in which Italians bec…
