The correct answer is E) the large influx of African-American workers into cities without enough housing or services.

A major contributing factor to racial tensions and riots during World War II was the large influx of African-American workers into cities without enough housing or services.

During World War II, almost 1.5 million African Americans moved from the rural areas of the Southern states to the Northern cities and some states in the West. Those places were not prepared to receive such a number of people all of a sudden. Their arrival generated problems and tensions because there were not enough places to live and the services were also not enough. Some places became overpopulated and racial tensions derived in confrontations.
