Thank you so very much for sharing this wonderful story of African-Americans serving our country in the Civil War. Then to gain some standing in the community in Northfield,Minnesota. Also,I'm very blessed to be reading a book called "The Ties that Bind," ("A Memoir of Race,Memory,and Redemption.") By Bertice Berry (Bestselling Author of "Redemption Song") I now know I have much reading and learning to do,but I also know that when I didn't have any active friends,I did gain two new friends,when I couldn't afford a roof over my head my slightly darker shaded companions,helped support me while I was all alone. Great friends,and I love those guys in Jesus' love,very sincerely.
700,000 peak soldiers in Union army. Approx. 200,000 Black union soldiers. True number unknown due to mullato soldiers who enlisted by passing as whites. Think about that.
Because they think just because the South went red means the party switch. Maybe the South got less racist but they don't think about that. Democrats keeping them on that plantation.
Please sto using the word "slave." Nobody was born a slave. Our African Ancestors were ENSLAVED. The y escaped the plantations, and they fought for freedom, and they won.
Bill Green was my professor in college! An awesome man I learned so much from him!
yup
Praise the Lord of heaven and earth for Black stories in American history is finally being told.🌍
Sho nuff
Who the f^ck cares about an American’s race?
Oh yeah. The race baiters who care more about their race than the fact that they’re an American.
Black history IS American history!
We have to tell that history ourselves, and take it from the whitewash.
@@GeorgeSeeAll so tell it.
This should have way more likes and views.
The story of the Massachusetts 54 th and 55th regiments in the Civil War is inspiring.❤
Kansas too.

AS AN AFRICAN AMERICAN WHOSE FAMILY OR A PART THEIR OF FOR OVER 150 YEARS THIS STORY INTRIGUES ME😊
Very informative. Finily justice for them brave men.

Escaping slavery and marching back with a blue uniform and a springfield to show their former oppressors whats up.
I WONDER IF THE JOHN BOONE IS RELATED TO THE AFRO AMERICAN BOONE FAMILY OF SAINT PAUL?
I WONDER IF THIS ALEXANDER CLARK IS RELATED MY SISTER IN LAWS FAMILY THE AFRO AMERICAN CLARK FAMILY OF SAINT PAUL?
Holt Collier was a proud Confederate sharp shooter
Blue boyz.
Why did black people vote for Robert Byrd's best friend?
Because they think just because the South went red means the party switch. Maybe the South got less racist but they don't think about that. Democrats keeping them on that plantation.
During the BLM riots 54th Massachusetts memorial was vandalized 🤦
I don’t like the term African American. I prefer the term black American. I don’t see people calling yt people European American
this documentary is great but the rapping takes me out of the immersion.
i cant be absorbed with modern music overlapping history
Too bad for you.
It's the Civil War, and you start with that music? very disappointed in your historical inaccuracy. Not worth watching
