No, I have not, but their story is impressive. It shows what people can do when given respect, and the chance to prove themselves.
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

If it's going to be anything like Hidden History, it will largely be false history.

It's fine with me. Go on. Make your preachy film, but don't pretend the entire purpose in making the film isn't to highlight the exploits of BLACK soldiers.Hwen Hoshino wrote:Why so sure?Okeefenokee wrote:Fat fucking chance.Hwen Hoshino wrote: I hope they find the right balance and they won't go to preachy.
But why does it matter what color they are?
Well, because of the history of black people in America.
What do you mean?
Institutional racism!
I don't follow...
Black bodies!
Huh?
Reparations!

Re: Harlem Hellfighters mini is coming
I don't know about that reparations nonsense. I will say Blacks have fought in every single American war in large numbers and very well too. They were a large part of the Continental Army.Okeefenokee wrote:It's fine with me. Go on.

Every. Single. War.
Yet, somehow, during each war there are fools saying they do nothing have what it takes to be soldiers or sailors they are erased from regular history. Each time blacks forced their way in and fight at least as well anyone else on both sides. Such events are then ignored until the next war.
While the general bs about them being unable stopped, more or less, after integration, all their military contributions from the Revolution onwards went into the memory hole.

Wow, war is bad for black people.
And bad for white people. Except for the party members running the show.
Cutting edge stuff.
Sorry for this post pretty much guys; I have no idea what the comic book the OP is on about is or says.
