Read the quote by President George W. Bush, honoring the Tuskegee Airmen in 2007.

These men in our presence felt a special sense of urgency. They were fighting two wars: One was in Europe, and the

other took place in the hearts and minds of our citizens. That's why we're here. The white commander of the Tuskegee

airfield was once asked-with all seriousness-how do African Americans fly?-reflecting the ignorance of the times,

they said, how do African Americans fly? He said, "Oh, they fly just like everybody else flies-stick and rudder.

What were the "two wars" that were fought by the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II?

the wars against Germany in Europe and Japan in the Pacific

the wars to maintain superiority in the air and with naval forces at sea

the wars against discrimination at home and against the axis powers

the wars to mobilize the homefront and to liberate allies in other countries

The correct answer is C. The wars against discrimination at home and against the axis powers

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, President George W. Bush refers to the Tuskeegee Airmen, who were mainly African American pilots that fought for the U. S. during the Second World War. About this Bush mentions "They were fighting two wars: One was in Europe and the other took place in the hearts and minds of our citizens".

About this it can be inferred, the first war was the Second World War in which the United States belonged to the Allies and fought against the Axis, which included countries such as Germany, Japan, and Italy because this was the main war in which these pilots participated. Besides this, the second war Bush mentions is likely the war and conflict due to discrimination in the U. S. because back then African Americans were still considered inferior by white citizens; this is supported by the words of Bush as he tells an anecdote in which the white commander was asked "how do African Americans fly?", which shows the discrimination through the pilots just because they were African Americans.
