How did the g. i. bill of rights, which provided funds for home loans, affect african americans? a. it those who had served in the military, but there were relatively few african american veterans. b. it provided assistance to african americans in the north, but there was still too much prejudice in the south. c. though it was written to all veterans regardless of race, african americans were typically excluded from home ownership. d. it greatly aided in the creation of an african american middle class?

The correct answer is C.

The GI Bill was one of the most influential post World War II policies. The goal was to help those who served in this war to gain an education and start a life with their families. However, African-Americans were discriminated against despite their service to the country. One historian who studied this topic, Ira Katznelson, found that out of the first 67,000 mortgages given through the GI Bill, less than 100 of them were given to African-American veterans. This shows how African-Americans faced discrimination by banks who refused to give them a loan.
