  • In 1995 HBO produced a fantastick movie called The Tuskegee Airmen that telsmuch of this story.. The story that's even les known is how civilian pilots were recruited to flyplanes newly built to various thatres of war needing new planes.There were both male and female pilots heroically doing this the difference being malepilots had ammunition and women did not. Lookit up.

  • Great vid. I think black people are now "free" in America because their own efforts to get equality and respect in the last decades. Thanks for uploading this.
