Book Description
Black Americans reacted in many ways to the United States' entry into World War I. Some gave loud support, some were indifferent, and others voiced outright opposition. Many white Americans (despite the lack of any evidence) suspected that German agents were engaged in"Negro Subversion" and that African Americans were potentially disloyal. In Race, War, and Surveillance, Mark Ellis looks at the interaction between the deep-seated fears of many white Americans about a possible race war and their profound ignorance about the black population. The result was a "black scare" that lasted well beyond the war years.
