Abstract
This paper reviews the historical background of the
Black Power movement in American society and its effects
upon the military establishment with respect to ethnic
constraints, institutional standards and the black perspective.
Major issues of both the advocates and opposition
of Black Power in terms of separatism and integration
are also discussed. Research in terms of personal interviews
with black military personnel is presented in a
standard data display format and correlated to the black
military individuals' self-concept and his understanding
of the Black Power movement. Conclusions are presented
in terms of institutional concepts and alterations necessary
to accommodate disenfranchised society and minority
groups within the military.
