The Harlem Hellfighters, officially known as the 369th Infantry Regiment, were an African American military unit that served in World War I. Despite facing discrimination and segregation in the United States, the Hellfighters distinguished themselves on the battlefield in Europe. They spent more time in combat than any other American unit, and their bravery and tenacity earned them respect from both allies and enemies. The Hellfighters were especially renowned for their heroism during the Battle of Meuse-Argonne, where they successfully captured important enemy positions despite heavy resistance.

The Harlem Hellfighters' significance transcends their military achievements. Their service challenged racial stereotypes and paved the way for greater acceptance of African Americans in the military. Their valor helped to inspire the Harlem Renaissance, a cultural and intellectual movement that celebrated African American identity and creativity. The Hellfighters' contributions to World War I and their struggle for equality at home left an indelible mark on both Black and American history, highlighting the resilience and courage of African American soldiers in the face of adversity.
