Tuskegee Airmen: Their Own Words 0

Barbara Hamm Lee interviews several surviving “Tuskegee airmen” about their experiences in the military and in the air. Life under Jim Crow forms an undercurrent to their experiences, though they do not talk about it directly.

Follow the link to listen and learn.

They made history – both in the military and beyond – becoming the first African American pursuit squadron in the United States. They were Army, and based in Tuskegee, Alabama. You’ve heard the stories and probably seen the movie, but on the next Another View we’ll talk with Hampton Roads Tuskegee Airmen from a different perspective. Were the “glory days” really glorious? How did they gather the strength to fight the enemy in the air and then racism at home? Has the US given the Tuskegee Airmen their just due? Join us for this special edition of Another View as we spend time with Sgt. Harry Quinton; Chief Master Sgt. Grant Williams; and Corporal Wilbert Gore, all Tuskegee Airmen of Hampton Roads . . . .

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
