Our War for Human Rights, penned by Kelly Miller and originally published in 1919, stands as a powerful testament to the African American struggle for equality during and after World War I. Miller, a prominent intellectual and civil rights advocate, articulates the profound contradictions faced by Black soldiers who fought for democracy abroad while being denied basic rights at home.
This compelling work examines the historical context of racial injustice in America, the contributions of African Americans to the war effort, and the urgent need for social and political reform. Miller's insightful analysis calls for a renewed commitment to human rights and challenges the nation to live up to its founding ideals. Our War for Human Rights remains a vital document for understanding the ongoing fight for equality and justice in America.
