The 1919 “Red Summer” revealed America’s racial hostilities through violent riots in cities like Chicago and Washington, D.C., and massacres in places like Elaine, Arkansas. White supremacist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan, fueled racial violence. African American veterans returning from World War I encountered hostility instead of gratitude, worsening tensions. These events spurred civil rights organizations like the NAACP to fight against racial injustice and advocate for equality in America.
