In the movie Saving Private Ryan, there is no presence of black soldiers. Is this historically correct? Why didn't the Roosevelt administration suspend segregation in the armed force during the war to mobilise more men? Did black soldiers have separate messes and barracks as well?

I am a recently liberated slave from Texas who is planning to move to the north to start a new life. What changes should I expect?
