The most depressing part is how little progress has been made in over 100 years. "It's called the 'American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it." - George Carlin
Carlin was a jay. Once you understand the realm of entertainment, you're able to understand what this quote really means. This army unit like so many others, were people who believed that, if they would fight for their country, they would get recognition. But before an individual or ethnic group is able to fight and get recognition, they have to understand History. The Constitution points out openly that blacks are not men. Thus, they're not able to claim to be men by expressing them self as such. The Law Of The Land overrules an expression verbally made. To move against oppression it's good to have a historical reference like the Haitian Revolution. Once we go into uprising of racial groups, we see they executed their Revolutions based on their correct understanding of history. These poor disinformed black soldiers in the above recap were the result of false information. There is no uprising possible that would have the possibility to succeed by signing up with the enemy the U.S. Army. An attempt to express them self's as men, based on their perception of rights, is naive. What is right or wrong the Constitution points out not black men who are no men according to same Constitution. It was enough that the Revolutionary leaders in the Carrebean reflected their ideas in their followers. The portrayed poor guided blacks didn't understand the law of the land, and nothing else thereof. You can't sign up to fight for your oppressor, but then get mad suddenly that you get no fair Treatament - thus fighting against him. They failed like the other units who had issue like them. The Indian units who were destroyed by the U.S. Army, regarded the Indians who signed up with the Army as traitors. And it's easy to understand History in this case as the native Indians were utterly exterminated, with the help of the Buffalo soldiers (black units). A plan needs time and thought. These soldiers responded emotional. As their idea of serving in the U.S. Army was based on their belief and trust that everything will change if they show their good will. The History of the Indians shows that this couldn't be more false. Once this naive perception took place in these disinformed soldiers all was lost. The only formidable group who would have been able to launch an uprising were the black folks who didn't serve and never intended to serve in the U.S. Army. If a man isn't able to plan. If a man signs up to fight for his master, and suddenly because he's treated unfairly becomes a rebel, he's already defeated before he's put to death or goes to prison by investing in an revolt. That's why there are so many black folks (old & young), complaining that nothing has changed. The only change - History shows this to us - can come through shedding blood. But one can't fight against the white man, if the )ews were the slave traders and control entertainment and our schools at present. History was taught to us in a falsified way. There are still blacks signing up to the U.S. Army though UA-cam and tons of literature points out how the Army made experiments with LSD using white and black soldiers and used in a regular basis soldiers as guinea pigs.

you call have a black president, no more jim crow laws, people of different minorities and back grounds in every job or position of power...little progress. funny....and clear some people still haven't ever read the Constitution. Thomas Jefferson's originally draft of the Constitution would have officially end slavery but had to change it to get the votes from the southern states, what they did do was ensure that slavery would eventually phrase out by no longer participating the Atlantic slave trade which eventually would have ended slavery all together if it hadn't been for that stupid cotton gin being made and keeping it profitable enough. Certainly is no denying that this country took way too long to finally get rid of laws and the policies that divided us......but doesn't really help when people are now back to pushing for divide and racial inequality again. There's a reason when men from the Tuskegee Airmen, the Buffalo soldiers and others are remembered with honor, because they vote and served this country with honor, and they still are being honored today. As well as the Native Americans who served as well, and didn't remotely come close to being exterminated. and some people are just conspiracy nut jobs who really need to just get back to playing with their imaginary friends, since they clearly have no idea about history....like how heavily invested African kingdoms where in the slave trade and when Europe and the United States stopped, they just keep selling them to countries like the Ottoman empire

They did so indeed. They were infinitely better in their treatment and were glad to have them fight alongside them. I wish I could go back in time to see the faces of the American officers watching the mass of French soldiers and officers hug the black troops as they landed in France.

This was World War 1, but the segregation in the Army was still going on in World War 2. My dad was in a tank battalion at Camp Hood, Texas, and the black troops were in segregated batallions, had separate barracks, separate mess halls and separate tanks and other equipment. When troops had a weekend pass, there were even separate busses for the black and white troops. My dad thought it was wrong, but there was nothing he could do about it. The way he saw it, they were also American soldiers ready to fight for their country, and skin color did not matter.

It was During World War 1, the 24th battalion of U.S. Black Soldiers were stopping the bad very Violence Riot in Texas, USA in the year of 1918 but they died from the death hanging
The 24th was disbanded during the Korean war. It was a good unit in WWII, but in Korea they would flee without orders and commit other offenses. Clinton reflagged another to the 24th after the WWI vets died but while the WWII guys were still alive.
Where he belongs, as he died defending his town against a rage fueled raid. The virtue signalling is nice, but blaming the one man for a two sided hatred is idiotic. It took two groups of morons to cause this, but when a cop is killed trying to stop civilians from being murdered, which is exactly what happened, he's honored.
@@cryaboutitlol what?! See, this is why history is important. Extremely important. You are so oblivious to how bias your simple ass is. You are blaming people for existing and defending themselves… meanwhile still giving praise to the cop who had biases as well and allowed the fire to be ignited himself, if not he was the tipping point of the events that took place! His fate was well deserved!
I’m familiar with the story and I live near Memorial Park, which used to be Camp Logan. It’s too bad police officers and the general public weren’t more appreciative of the Black “Doughboys” of the era. It was a tragic event.
@@cryaboutitlol well no if the cop was known to have led Lynch mobs and raids against black people. I don't agree what the soldiers did to the innocent but that got exactly what he deserved. And second those soldiers weren't idiots just unfortunate souls who deserved a fighting chance and were good men delt a band hand.
@@braxtonjones6163 They caused a mutiny and riot, killing eleven civilians and five law enforcement officers. Five soldiers themselves died aswell. Even though this was during WW1 and white people had been racist towards black people regardless of military job, what they did was unacceptable and didn't do them justice.
Interestingly, 13 men were hung; it sounds conveniently related to the thirteenth amendment and their sacrifice served the few in the end. "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, *except as a punishment for a crime* whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
People like what America stands for, but not what they actually do, the Battle of Little Big Horn where General Custard fought the braves who went with the sitting bull. The question is who was he fighting up to that point? Women and Children.
Murdering folks isn’t honorable. Martin Luther king didn’t kill anyone, he actively promoted nonviolent action. If he killed someone he would be no better then the men who abused him.
Wow, this is such a powerful story. Just wow. It's hard to express my feelings. They did a bad thing but if not for the all agenda against them then it wouldn't happen in the first place. They couldn't even count on fair trial, damn. It's hard to believe that it really took place. I can't imagine how people would even segregate themselves from others, at the end of the day we're all the same.
@Mr. Black the process that MLK and Malcom X did. Not the bullshit BLM pushes for. Don't act like you don't have right today. That's just a ignorant way to think, grow up
These dumb MF put a ceiling on human potential with their racist ideology. Just imagine how much further we could be if people was truly valued on their worth and not race or place of birth
@@bikemanncit’s a reference to that George Lucas film Red Tails. A black pilot was joking with another white pilot talking about preferred terms, when one of the pilots joke saying “when you get angry, you turn red. When you get sick, you turn purple. And when your envious, you turn yellow. And y’all are calling us colored.” This scene is actually meant to be light-hearted, as it’s when white and black pilots are having drinks together in an officer’s club that was originally reserved for whites, but the black officers were invited into the bar by the bomber pilots for doing a good job protecting them on their missions.
@@edm240b9 I’m proud of the Tuskegee Airmen however that movie sucked! It’s said that Red Tails was the least money making movie involving George Lucas.
I'm sure if they had let them go to europe they would have been earned their medals and earned a cool nickname like the harlem hellfighters Instead they had to fight johnny rebs in their own home jesus
As like typical Hollywood, the movie distorts the facts of what actually happened leading to the riot.. 1. The city of Houston at that time had mounted police that patrolled Houston's 4th ward area, not military police.. 2. The cpl portrayed in this movie was Cpl. Baltimore, not someone named Boston. 3. What erupted the riot was when two Houston police officers chased two black youths caught shooting dice who ran inside a black woman's house and the woman was arrested for resisting and was slapped around by the police. 4. A black soldier approached the officers to complain and was beaten and arrested, too. 5. Cpl. Baltimore protested the arrest and was also beaten and arrested .. Word got back to the camp Baltimore was killed and 150 black troops armed themselves and walked thru the streets of Houston shooting any white people they saw.. That's the truth and facts behind the Camp Logan riots of 1917..
This is exactly why I cringe at the ignorant Black folk who like to say “I’m not my Grandparents/Ancestors Generation” as if we’re somehow braver to fight back now. NO smdh ADOS has a lonnnnnng, proud history of fighting back against injustice and standing up for our humanity. The struggle continues
Ummm, Well There is no direct racial laws anymore within the United States, the military under no grounds can Discriminate directly against any service member, colored service members along with Asian service members cannot be discriminated after service when it comes to benefits and pay, Segregation of public transportation is a thing of the pass, And in a lot communities racial tensions are almost nonexistent, now of course there is still racism but a lot has actually changed for a lot of the better, it’s probably never gonna be perfect but it is definitely going to be better
Respectfully you are mistaken. As a whole This does not happen now in some times I’m sure but it’s not like that. This isn’t 1917 this is 2023 where man are equal based on character. Go up to a real true Texan that was born raised and still there and ask their thoughts on this and be prepared to be shocked. My father was born during these dark times as child who is now in his 70s and would talk about how horrible it was because he knew this wasn’t right. Unlike hard core radicals on all sides it’s not like this a radical thinks shit if I goto oakcliff near Dallas and your white oh shit your gonna get beat up and picked on and Vic’s versa if a black man goes to damn south lake or trophy club Texas ask rich white peipoe city. They don’t both nothing neither do. I was 19 walking to a Dallas stars game walking on what some what be called “the wrong side of town” where the majority is black me looking like a damn hard honky wearing a hockey jersey into a McDonald’s and I am my friend were the only white peipoe there we were never bothered not one bit all we got peipoe yelling at us was “GO STARS!” And on the contrary a similar story but from a relative of mine who is black raised as a radical was shocked when he went to south lake rich city town square This is modern times not the past peipoe have learned and become more evolved from this primitive thinking. What do you think these soliders would say if there were alive today and could see 2023 seeing mix race marriages being honored and having a black man white mean just chillin maybe mixing some country rap or something hell idk just chillin I think you think it’s so terrible now that’s disrespectful to these men who know real for real life or death oppression. Shit all they need to see is Denzel washing in action man is the goat actor all time period sorry Tom hanks you loose lol Kinda crazy to think that my great grandfather fought in the civil war as a young man born in the south lived in the south didn’t like the moto pretty much moved up North fought for the Union and voted republicasn cause keep in mind democrats did not want to black vote they didn’t want it all all. D Check out some history facts and stuff. Texas is where near the petty shit it did back then today. No way prolly most friendly ones it’s the damn Californians we got to watch they are flooding over here in the 10000s lmao 🤣 At the end of the black white blue green or orange your born here your American not African American not Irish American no your American Together as one #unity 🤜🏻🤛🏾
He probably got a good deal and spent the rest of his life somewhat successful. I have come to realize, over the years, that standing up for what’s right for black folks is not very rewarding in the end. Deion Sanders understands that reality too which is why he left Jackson State for Lilly white Colorado, it’s top notch rich facilities, and a 5 million dollar payday.

In November 2023, the Army set aside all 110 convictions. It acknowledged they had not received fair trials in the racist climate of the time period. The Army gave all the men honorable discharges, enabling any of their descendants to receive military benefits.
That type of attitude tends to bring the events that were suffering from today, for instance those national guardsmen who where fired upon even though they were not showing hostility we’re also just doing their job as what happened was act of rebellion and borderline terrorism committed on a civilian population, Now did a lot of the more Racist officers get what they deserved, yes they did, did every single racist at that time have another excuse to continue racism because of the extreme brutality of this event, yes they did and it made it very hard for the black population in the military to get past this and later Desegregate the military
@@lolbit1232 It’s more like group punishment. Shit happened. Often to non whites. Just the way the times were back then and people were all to happy to participate in the hatred or be indifferent to it. So everyone pays the consequences. Something like this could have been curbed long ago. But apathy and hatred. So everyone suffers.
Actual historians should have worked on this movie. As a military unit, they made themselves a disgrace. The unbearable racism doesn't really "put things into perspective", and it doesn't make them relatable because we don't really know why they resorted to going on a killing spree.
@@Oscar42o That racism wasn't part of the historical record in this case, so it's really just a guess of what could have happened. It would be like adding extreme hatred / homophobia to the Jeffrey Dahmer story to explain why he became a serial killer. What about the actual event tells us what kind of men they really were? I am surprised they are not trying to forget about this embarrassing part of black history. However, it's probably worse to try to paint it as a night of justifiable rage.
@@Oscar42o Do you understand the absence of evidence? Read any historical accounts by Haynes or any others. It doesn't support what was shown in the film, even if you think this type of racism was typical. You were probably alive during the DC sniper attacks. After a number of years pass, do we just assume that those killings were justified as well? They hated the government and probably faced racism, yet it's not documented that they ever felt what they did was in any way justified. Does it need to be so that we don't have filmmakers rewrite the story to be sympathetic to the killers simply because we still live in a racist society?
movies like Devotion and Glory are 100x times better, they don't skirt the issues of the time periods but showed when people of different backgrounds coming together and eventually their actions resulted in real changes...... Movies like these are just meant to divide us again. "If death is the payment for a night of justice" What justice, they are trying justify and glorify the killing of innocent civilians(no surprise really considering how much some have justified or flat out ignored all the deaths during the recent riots), They did in fact shoot up a car just because whites where in it, not because they recognized any of them. Considering how indiscriminate they were firing, I doubt they even recognized Daniels before they shot him and those other cops. If they had just gone and beaten the crap of the cops who had actually assaulted them, I would be given them the thumbs up, but that's not what happened. How many of those civilians killed had even been involved in a lynching before, how many of the cops killed(minus Daniels) were actually involved with assaulting of the soldiers, hm?. If it was a night of justice, then how many of those people were actually involved with trying to kill someone based purely on the color of the skin hm?.....because it seems the soldiers didn't actually care about who they shot, just let their bloodlust take over and didn't give two hoots about justice...surprised they even stopped after realizing they had killed that National Guard officer.
This isn’t LaLa land, it’s reality. Many African Americans literally just wanted equality and would have “worked together” had white people allowed them to. Which glory movie did you watch? Clearly not the same one I’m talking about. The major premise of the movie is about the 54th Massachusetts being treated like shit by their very own white Union comrades. I mean how many innocent Black people have been lynched for absolutely no reason at all. You seem more upset about the actions of American soldiers being pushed to the brink after an insane amount of injustice and oppression towards them. Instead of the oppressors who couldn’t even provide an once of respect towards black men risking their lives to fight for a country that didn’t even care about them.
You think telling history is supposed to divide us. Granted this movie didn't do a good job of depicting historically what happened. But don't take this movie as fact do some research of your own. Devotion and showed a fraction of what Ensign Jesse Brown went through. We both know it was way worse than what the movies portray. Back then racial Bias was all over the country and you couldn't hide from it. After the civil war, the government and ex-plantation owners found newer ways to oppress black people. Doesn't matter who didn't participate in lynchings, petty crimes, murders, etc. white people who sat by and watched it are still to blame. Because when it came to what's right and wrong they sat by and chose to be a coward or participated in the crime.
know, equivalent to this movie would be trying to make a movie that fully justified the Mountain Meadows Massacre. The attackers had spent years being attacked, raped, friends murdered and driven from their homes no matter where they moved to, until they were finally driven completely out of the Country. Then because of lies, President Buchanan, not even caring to get confirmation, ended up sending the U.S. army to invade the territory. So all that fear and paranoia, ended up leading to a massacre....but there is zero justification for killing innocent people, just like there is zero sense in making a movie that tries to justify senseless murders
now in 2023 whites still believe in the mentality of their supposed rights and superiority. Never understood why all blacks and browns never united and stood their ground. Why all of Africa never united and become the United Nations of Africa... bout be my dream to see this happen...

It was During World War 1, the 24th battalion of U.S. Black Soldiers were stopping the bad very Violence Riot in Texas, USA in the year of 1918 but they died from the death hanging
My former units lineage right here, love it. 1-24th Legionnaires Aries, Barbarians & HHC 2016-2019 🇺🇸 💀
The 24th was disbanded during the Korean war. It was a good unit in WWII, but in Korea they would flee without orders and commit other offenses.
Clinton reflagged another to the 24th after the WWI vets died but while the WWII guys were still alive.
Houston PD started the whole thing, and the initial cop deserved his fate. Unfortunately you can find his name honored on officer down website.
Where he belongs, as he died defending his town against a rage fueled raid. The virtue signalling is nice, but blaming the one man for a two sided hatred is idiotic. It took two groups of morons to cause this, but when a cop is killed trying to stop civilians from being murdered, which is exactly what happened, he's honored.
@@cryaboutitlol what?! See, this is why history is important. Extremely important. You are so oblivious to how bias your simple ass is. You are blaming people for existing and defending themselves… meanwhile still giving praise to the cop who had biases as well and allowed the fire to be ignited himself, if not he was the tipping point of the events that took place! His fate was well deserved!
@@cryaboutitlol you know how dumb you sound
I’m familiar with the story and I live near Memorial Park, which used to be Camp Logan.
It’s too bad police officers and the general public weren’t more appreciative of the Black “Doughboys” of the era.
It was a tragic event.
@@cryaboutitlol well no if the cop was known to have led Lynch mobs and raids against black people. I don't agree what the soldiers did to the innocent but that got exactly what he deserved. And second those soldiers weren't idiots just unfortunate souls who deserved a fighting chance and were good men delt a band hand.
Sad that this happened.
>citation needed
Sad that it had to happen but our hand was forced. 24th infantry fought so we could have a better future.
@@braxtonjones6163 They caused a mutiny and riot, killing eleven civilians and five law enforcement officers. Five soldiers themselves died aswell.
Even though this was during WW1 and white people had been racist towards black people regardless of military job, what they did was unacceptable and didn't do them justice.
Interestingly, 13 men were hung; it sounds conveniently related to the thirteenth amendment and their sacrifice served the few in the end.
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, *except as a punishment for a crime* whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

All these Soldiers in the 24th Infantry Regiment did the right and moral thing.
People like what America stands for, but not what they actually do, the Battle of Little Big Horn where General Custard fought the braves who went with the sitting bull. The question is who was he fighting up to that point? Women and Children.
They “dishonour” a country that didnt look at them as men.
Murdering folks isn’t honorable. Martin Luther king didn’t kill anyone, he actively promoted nonviolent action. If he killed someone he would be no better then the men who abused him.
Yup white people dishonored everything

Wow, this is such a powerful story. Just wow. It's hard to express my feelings. They did a bad thing but if not for the all agenda against them then it wouldn't happen in the first place. They couldn't even count on fair trial, damn. It's hard to believe that it really took place. I can't imagine how people would even segregate themselves from others, at the end of the day we're all the same.
Well Google seems to be doing a really good job of putting everybody into little groups which is basically a modern form of segregation

Wait a minute. . . “He meets a woman for the first time”? You mean that he never met a woman before? 😁
Black remains black so why you called them color men? It's white people who are colorful, when anger they become red, when fear they become pale
and yet you continue to use "colored" label to describe anyone; who's being racist here?
That’s in a movie, I’m sure of it
@@bikemanncit’s a reference to that George Lucas film Red Tails. A black pilot was joking with another white pilot talking about preferred terms, when one of the pilots joke saying “when you get angry, you turn red. When you get sick, you turn purple. And when your envious, you turn yellow. And y’all are calling us colored.”
This scene is actually meant to be light-hearted, as it’s when white and black pilots are having drinks together in an officer’s club that was originally reserved for whites, but the black officers were invited into the bar by the bomber pilots for doing a good job protecting them on their missions.

As like typical Hollywood, the movie distorts the facts of what actually happened leading to the riot..
1. The city of Houston at that time had mounted police that patrolled Houston's 4th ward area, not military police..
2. The cpl portrayed in this movie was Cpl. Baltimore, not someone named Boston.
3. What erupted the riot was when two Houston police officers chased two black youths caught shooting dice who ran inside a black woman's house and the woman was arrested for resisting and was slapped around by the police.
4. A black soldier approached the officers to complain and was beaten and arrested, too.
5. Cpl. Baltimore protested the arrest and was also beaten and arrested ..
Word got back to the camp Baltimore was killed and 150 black troops armed themselves and walked thru the streets of Houston shooting any white people they saw..
That's the truth and facts behind the Camp Logan riots of 1917..

Nothing has changed sadly 😔
Ummm, Well There is no direct racial laws anymore within the United States, the military under no grounds can Discriminate directly against any service member, colored service members along with Asian service members cannot be discriminated after service when it comes to benefits and pay, Segregation of public transportation is a thing of the pass, And in a lot communities racial tensions are almost nonexistent, now of course there is still racism but a lot has actually changed for a lot of the better, it’s probably never gonna be perfect but it is definitely going to be better
If that’s true why haven’t you left?

Never knew of this story, Texas is still f up'd like this today...I wonder what happened to the Sambo mf??
Respectfully you are mistaken. As a whole This does not happen now in some times I’m sure but it’s not like that. This isn’t 1917 this is 2023 where man are equal based on character. Go up to a real true Texan that was born raised and still there and ask their thoughts on this and be prepared to be shocked.
My father was born during these dark times as child who is now in his 70s and would talk about how horrible it was because he knew this wasn’t right.
Unlike hard core radicals on all sides it’s not like this a radical thinks shit if I goto oakcliff near Dallas and your white oh shit your gonna get beat up and picked on and Vic’s versa if a black man goes to damn south lake or trophy club Texas ask rich white peipoe city. They don’t both nothing neither do. I was 19 walking to a Dallas stars game walking on what some what be called “the wrong side of town” where the majority is black me looking like a damn hard honky wearing a hockey jersey into a McDonald’s and I am my friend were the only white peipoe there we were never bothered not one bit all we got peipoe yelling at us was “GO STARS!” And on the contrary a similar story but from a relative of mine who is black raised as a radical was shocked when he went to south lake rich city town square
This is modern times not the past peipoe have learned and become more evolved from this primitive thinking.
What do you think these soliders would say if there were alive today and could see 2023 seeing mix race marriages being honored and having a black man white mean just chillin maybe mixing some country rap or something hell idk just chillin
I think you think it’s so terrible now that’s disrespectful to these men who know real for real life or death oppression.

Sad story
Nothing changed they still shit on me every chance they get
In November 2023, the Army set aside all 110 convictions. It acknowledged they had not received fair trials in the racist climate of the time period. The Army gave all the men honorable discharges, enabling any of their descendants to receive military benefits.
Why are some comments here acting like the current military is segregated tf?
military is based in position so what the person at the top think is reflected in the entire military.

Push too far and find out what happens.
I am not very sympathetic to any of the victims, innocent or otherwise.
That type of attitude tends to bring the events that were suffering from today, for instance those national guardsmen who where fired upon even though they were not showing hostility we’re also just doing their job as what happened was act of rebellion and borderline terrorism committed on a civilian population, Now did a lot of the more Racist officers get what they deserved, yes they did, did every single racist at that time have another excuse to continue racism because of the extreme brutality of this event, yes they did and it made it very hard for the black population in the military to get past this and later Desegregate the military

It’s more like group punishment.
Shit happened. Often to non whites. Just the way the times were back then and people were all to happy to participate in the hatred or be indifferent to it.

Actual historians should have worked on this movie. As a military unit, they made themselves a disgrace. The unbearable racism doesn't really "put things into perspective", and it doesn't make them relatable because we don't really know why they resorted to going on a killing spree.
Is unbearable racism not enough for you?
@@Oscar42o That racism wasn't part of the historical record in this case, so it's really just a guess of what could have happened. It would be like adding extreme hatred / homophobia to the Jeffrey Dahmer story to explain why he became a serial killer. What about the actual event tells us what kind of men they really were? I am surprised they are not trying to forget about this embarrassing part of black history. However, it's probably worse to try to paint it as a night of justifiable rage.
@@tc23emp What do you mean "That racism wasn't part of the historical record in this case" Where is your evidence?
@@Oscar42o Do you understand the absence of evidence? Read any historical accounts by Haynes or any others. It doesn't support what was shown in the film, even if you think this type of racism was typical. You were probably alive during the DC sniper attacks. After a number of years pass, do we just assume that those killings were justified as well? They hated the government and probably faced racism, yet it's not documented that they ever felt what they did was in any way justified. Does it need to be so that we don't have filmmakers rewrite the story to be sympathetic to the killers simply because we still live in a racist society?
@@tc23emp You can basically say the same thing about any historical movies lol
movies like Devotion and Glory are 100x times better, they don't skirt the issues of the time periods but showed when people of different backgrounds coming together and eventually their actions resulted in real changes...... Movies like these are just meant to divide us again.
"If death is the payment for a night of justice" What justice, they are trying justify and glorify the killing of innocent civilians(no surprise really considering how much some have justified or flat out ignored all the deaths during the recent riots), They did in fact shoot up a car just because whites where in it, not because they recognized any of them. Considering how indiscriminate they were firing, I doubt they even recognized Daniels before they shot him and those other cops. If they had just gone and beaten the crap of the cops who had actually assaulted them, I would be given them the thumbs up, but that's not what happened.
How many of those civilians killed had even been involved in a lynching before, how many of the cops killed(minus Daniels) were actually involved with assaulting of the soldiers, hm?. If it was a night of justice, then how many of those people were actually involved with trying to kill someone based purely on the color of the skin hm?.....because it seems the soldiers didn't actually care about who they shot, just let their bloodlust take over and didn't give two hoots about justice...surprised they even stopped after realizing they had killed that National Guard officer.
This isn’t LaLa land, it’s reality. Many African Americans literally just wanted equality and would have “worked together” had white people allowed them to.
Which glory movie did you watch? Clearly not the same one I’m talking about. The major premise of the movie is about the 54th Massachusetts being treated like shit by their very own white Union comrades.
I mean how many innocent Black people have been lynched for absolutely no reason at all.
You seem more upset about the actions of American soldiers being pushed to the brink after an insane amount of injustice and oppression towards them. Instead of the oppressors who couldn’t even provide an once of respect towards black men risking their lives to fight for a country that didn’t even care about them.
Bruh its what happened whats done is done
You think telling history is supposed to divide us. Granted this movie didn't do a good job of depicting historically what happened. But don't take this movie as fact do some research of your own. Devotion and showed a fraction of what Ensign Jesse Brown went through. We both know it was way worse than what the movies portray. Back then racial Bias was all over the country and you couldn't hide from it. After the civil war, the government and ex-plantation owners found newer ways to oppress black people. Doesn't matter who didn't participate in lynchings, petty crimes, murders, etc. white people who sat by and watched it are still to blame. Because when it came to what's right and wrong they sat by and chose to be a coward or participated in the crime.
Consequences.
know, equivalent to this movie would be trying to make a movie that fully justified the Mountain Meadows Massacre. The attackers had spent years being attacked, raped, friends murdered and driven from their homes no matter where they moved to, until they were finally driven completely out of the Country. Then because of lies, President Buchanan, not even caring to get confirmation, ended up sending the U.S. army to invade the territory. So all that fear and paranoia, ended up leading to a massacre....but there is zero justification for killing innocent people, just like there is zero sense in making a movie that tries to justify senseless murders
