In what way did african americans in georgia benefit from world war ii?
a) segregation was officially ended in georgia and throughout the south.
b) they enjoyed increased employment opportunities and earned higher wages. c) african americans were able to go on strike if they were discriminated against. d) the civil rights movement used the war to press for more voting and social rights.

The correct answer is B) they enjoyed increased employment opportunities and earned higher wages.

African Americans from Georgia benefited from World War II because they enjoyed increased employment opportunities and earned higher wages.

Black workers in the state of Georgia benefited from World War II although segregation was still a problem. This allowed the workers to continue their civil rights demands. Many workers labored in the military industry, earning better wages than other industries because federal guidelines mandated that workers in the military industry would gain better wages than other industries. That was another benefit for them.

All of the given option is true except that the Hood's Brigade defended the port at Galveston, which they did not.

Option A

Explanation:

The Hood's Brigade is one of the most decorated infantry regiments of the Texas. The Texas regiment is often called the Hood's Brigade as the most decorated regiment and being the same, it suffered the highest casualties too.

The Hood's regiment was involved in almost all the battles fought in Texas, but is notably known not to defend the port at Galveston. The federals rather abandon the port than defending it. The port was the largest sea port and was the biggest city as well and so was difficult to be defended.
