The
Tuskegee Airmen, nicknamed the Red Tails, were the first African American military
aviators in the United States armed forces. During World
War II, African Americans in many U.S. states still were
subject to racist Jim Crow laws. The American
military was racially segregated, as was much of the
federal government. The Tuskegee Airmen were subject to
racial discrimination, both within and outside the army.
Despite these adversities, they trained and flew with
distinction.
We offer
numerous products to help you pay homage to the brave fighting men
known as the Tuskegee Airmen. We have Tuskegee Airmen t-shirts,
caps, jackets, and sweaters. As well as Tuskegee Airmen artwork,
and figurines. Plus Tuskegee Airmen tapestry/throws, and pillows.
For Love of Liberty - The
Story of America's Black Patriots
3-DVD PBS documentary
For Love of Liberty - The Story of America's
Black Patriots
If prevalent and accepted
accounts of American History – both scholarly and those
portrayed by Hollywood – are to be believed, the face of the
United States Armed Services was white.
The truth is
over 5,000 Black soldiers fought in the American Revolution. And
though most were not recognized as citizens or even free men,
more than 200,000 took up arms in the Civil War. Over 380,000
African-Americans served in World War I and more than 2,000,000
defended this country in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Yet
most accounts of their valiant actions are absent from history
books and contemporary film.
For Love Of
Liberty: The Story Of America's Black Patriots finally, and
for the first time, sets the record straight. It's a 3-DVD
documentary that was ten years in the making. It's introduced by
Colin Powell and features narration by an all-star cast
including Halle Berry, Morgan Freeman, Bill Cosby, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee,
Danny Glover, Angela Bassett, John Amos, Blair Underwood, Robert
Townsend, Louis Gossett Jr and many others.
