During World War I and World War II, Black soldiers faced discrimination and segregation within the U.S. military despite their invaluable contributions. One notable unit from WWI was the Harlem Hellfighters, officially known as the 369th Infantry Regiment. They were an African American infantry unit that served with distinction on the Western Front in France. Despite facing racism and being relegated to menial tasks initially, the Hellfighters proved their mettle in combat, spending more time in the front lines than any other American unit. They earned widespread recognition for their bravery, including numerous awards from the French government.

The Harlem Hellfighters and other Black soldiers of both world wars played a crucial role in shaping American history by challenging racial prejudices and paving the way for future civil rights advancements. Their sacrifices and achievements highlighted the hypocrisy of fighting for freedom abroad while denying it at home. Their courage and resilience not only contributed to the Allied victory but also sparked conversations about equality and justice within the United States, laying the groundwork for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. The Harlem Hellfighters, in particular, became symbols of Black excellence and resilience, demonstrating that despite systemic racism, African Americans could excel in the face of adversity and deserve recognition for their service and sacrifice.
