the homestead grays

A brilliant look at the performance of the first all black fighter squadron of the second world war. They were called suicidal and were cheated of kills by their superiors who believed black people shouldn't be fighting alongside white people. Did they screw up?. Yes but no more than other people but because they were black it was publicized whenever they screwed up, and often when they didn't. 10 out of 10
