Description

They fought for a country that didn’t fight for them.

From the battlefields of the American Revolution to the trenches of World War II, Black soldiers didn’t just serve – they sacrificed, resisted, and reshaped history.

In this episode, “African American Veterans: From the Revolution to World Wars,” we honor the untold stories of the men and women who suited up for a nation that treated them as second-class citizens…but never broke their spirit.

🎖️ Discover how Black veterans used military service to fight for freedom on and off the battlefield.

📜 Dive into personal stories, rare records, and research that challenge the whitewashed war narratives we were taught.

🏛️ Learn how African American veterans demanded dignity, laid the foundation for civil rights, and built legacies we still walk in today.

Whether you have a veteran in your family – or are only now learning how deep our roots in U.S. history run – this is your invitation to listen, honor, and reclaim.
