The purpose of the "Double V" campaign was to fight racism at home and abroad.

Further Explanation:

The "Double V" campaign was prevalent within American society during World War II. The goal of this campaign was to gain victory over racism at home (aka the United States) and abroad (in the European and Pacific Theaters).

This campaign was fueled by African American citizens within the US. The reason why African Americans were fighting for victory at home was due to the Jim Crow laws. Throughout the United States, Jim Crow laws existed. These laws resulted in segregated public facilities such as schools, parks, businesses, etc.

Even though these African American citizens were treated unfairly at home, many of them fought overseas in World War II, helping the United States defeat Germany and Japan. This also fueled the campaign, as African Americans felt it was unfair that they were liberating citizens in Europe from poor treatment when many of these African American men faced discrimination and violence in the US because of their skin color. This "Double V" campaign would be a stepping stone for the Civil Rights movement of the 1950's and 1960's.
