Woodrow Wilson was the son of a minister, and held high moral standards in many areas. Because of this background, he attempted to bring peace to the participants in World War I. Unfortunately, he was also the son of a former Confederate officer, and held the segregationist beliefs of many from that part of the country. As a result, he committed several racist acts, such as claiming black soldiers were coming home from World War I espousing Bolshevism.
