Answer: Wars ( especially civil ) disproportionately affect racial minorities with small or no history of generational wealth.
Explanation:
A great example of this is the American Civil War, where slaves captured by the union army can be held as "enemy contraband" and be forced to work. The reason this happened was because African Americans were seen as "other than human" at the time, because they were racial minority. After the war shifted tides Confederate Soldiers enacted " scorched earth tactics " burning down any infrastructure they could find before the Union Army could take it African Americans had historically lived in very condensed spaces with each other, therefore this seemingly small act disproportionately effected a large community. Free African Americans had a much lower presence in the south than in the North and were much less accepted by the community in which one in every four households owned slaves or 5% of the population. Black people were often victims of racial violence by the confederate army which they could do nothing about.
