Fighting On Both Fronts: The Story of the 370th

The story of one of few African-American regiments to have fought in World War I.

The remarkable, but little known, story of one of few African-American regiments to have fought in combat during World War I. They were America's unsung heroes - a group of men from Illinois, largely from Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood. They fought on two fronts - the war against the Germans and the war against racism and inequality.
