Introduction
African American WWII veterans speak with brutal honesty about the prejudice they encountered and the battles they fought during the war.
Outline
From America’s birth by fire in the Revolution to the sands of Iraq, black warriors have fought and died for the United States of America. Long before they were recognised as citizens, much less equals, African-Americans sacrificed their lives for a society from which they were largely excluded.
