Philip Randolph argued that it was unjust to require African Americans to fight for democracy in other countries while being denied basic civil rights and equality at home. He emphasized that African Americans should not be expected to defend a democracy that they themselves were not afforded, highlighting the hypocrisy of asking them to sacrifice for a nation that systematically oppressed them. Randolph's stance called for a reevaluation of the treatment of African Americans and their rights before asking for their military service abroad.
