The Harlem Hellfighters - The 369th Infantry - Extra History

Please check out The Black Veterans for Social Justice, an organization dedicated to servicing veterans, their families, and members of the community: https://bvsj.org/ When World War 1 kicked off, black Americans were not allowed to serve in the army until a draft was implemented. Even then, the 15th infantry regiment was off to a rocky start. They were trained in a town that hated them, and delayed 3 times from making it across the sea. And when they finally did make it across the ocean, they were pushed onto the French army. But that didn't stop them from being some of the most fierce combatants in WWI. With legends like Henry Johnson, Needham Roberts, and James Reese Europe, the Hellfighters fought the longest of any US regiment without giving up any ground & without a single member captured by the enemy.

The EC team does such a great job with representation in their character figures (including different skin tones, hijabs, different hair styles, etc.) that it didn't even occur to me at first that the soldiers all had dark skin.

This was a fantastic video and informative. I felt shocked by the fates of the Hellfighters who returned to the USA only to find a more difficult life, and in some cases were murdered.... while I am grateful that I am able to learn their stories even 100 years later, it does remind me the complexity of the issues we face and how much further we can still climb as humanity. I appreciate what these videos teach me.
