Did fighting against anti-Semites in World War II shift the (white) American public's opinions on racism by a significant amount?

I'm just curious if seeing these people and what they were doing in the name of their "race" caused returning soldiers and those at home to feel uncomfortable with the obvious similarities to Jim Crow. I know black soldiers coming back were emboldened to push more for their rights, but how much of an effect was there on the white populace?
