FDR executive order 8802 “there shall be no discrimination in the employment if workers in defense industries… because of race, creed, color or national origin.” Fair employment Practices Commission First piece of civil rights legislation since the end of the Civil War During WWII African Americans formed a militant organization called the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE): it will later be a big assistance for African Americans during the civil rights movement.

Bracero Program bracero, meaning "manual laborer" or "one who works using his arms“ a series of laws and diplomatic agreements, initiated by an August 1942 exchange of diplomatic notes between the United States and Mexico, for the importation of temporary contract laborers from Mexico to the United States. The agreement guaranteed basic human rights (sanitation, adequate shelter and food) and a minimum wage of 30 cents an hour

Zoot Suit Riots Upon hearing a rumor that a group of zoot- suit teenagers attacked several sailors, around 2,500 soldiers and sailors stormed into Mexican- American neighborhoods.

They cut their hair and tore off their suits. No police intervention occurred. The Zoot Suit Riots were an example of Mexican-American racial tensions that occurred during the war years.
