“All black air force like Tuskegee” 😭
Amen!
These men are brave. I’d be their wing man any day. Perfect example. What doesn’t kill you. Only makes you stronger.❤
As a Mexican American, I salute these brave black airmen
I consider the men who fought in WW2 heroes. As a nurse, I had the privilege of taking care of many WW2 vets. And I once had one of the last of the Tuskegee airmen as a patient. Thank you for your service
0:33 Where’s the black press today? And why aren’t they putting ‘pressure on the cause for reparations?
Hero’s, each and every one of them
Never forget you.….Thank you for EVERTHING💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Sad that some states like Florida want to erase history because it makes them uncomfortable.
Came here after watching the movie Red Tails
These men should be invited to predominantly black schools. They should be set as example of how to succeed, instead of the few who keeps on telling them that they had no chance and just stay victim
And yet I rise
Heartbreaking how they would come back to segregation after fighting for this very country
Another unsung hero of WWII is Charles R. Drew. He developed a method for processing blood for transfusions. Ironically he died when he was in an accident and when transported to the closest hospital was turned away because he was black. He died on the way to the black hospital, probably from blood loss.
The Me 262 is an illegal terror weapon in the skies and a terror jet that killed my American grandparents.
I’m a Nam vet ’72 and now an RN. A couple of years ago I had the privilege of caring for a man who told me he was a Tuskegee airman. I told him I was not worthy to stand on the ground in front of him. I asked both shifts of nurses if they had ever heard of the Tuskegee airmen. Of course, all I got were dumb looks. I proceeded to give them a short history lesson and assured them they weren’t worthy to care for him either.
Eleanor Rosevette was a huge supporter of these men which included going to the base and asking the men to take her for a ride.
Who were the Tuskegee Airmen? The TRUTH is that they were one of the WORST performing fighter groups in WW2. Not a SINGLE pilot from the 332’nd earned the title Ace, NOT ONE!!!! Yet they are fawned over and we are told lies about how great they were and history is outright fabricated. I am sure you have heard the lie that they never lost a bomber to enemy fighters? It is literally a lie. The 332’nd didn’t start escorting American bombers until late 1944 when the German Luftwaffe was a shell of its former self. In the 179 missions where they escorted bombers they only encountered enemy fighters on 35 missions. In those missions they lost 29 bombers.
Who were they fools for fighting a country that was lynching and burning alive black people got called the n word repeatedly over there came to the same ole Jim crow got screwed out of the G.I bill they lynched black soldiers in for wearing their uniforms they treated German prisoners better than them even the Germans were like what are you doing over here Roosevelt called Hitler out for his treatment of the Jews Hitler told him look who’s talking some of the stuff we are doing we got from y’all u know it’s bad if Hitler calls you out
Glad standards were not lowered and they Proved themselves to Everyone who doubted!!
This is why we need to keep our black history! We can not vote far right because of the immigrant problem that will be taken care of in time! We need democracy!
U sign a blank check. Nothing is owed
I am going to use this video in my Social Studies class
imagine thinking you’re better than the Black ppl all humans come from .
Dude!.. I just watched this very video not five hours ago, and youtub just threw it back on my recommended channel WITHOUT having that red bar at the bottom to tell me I had watched it! They stopped putting that there to waste more of our time — but it gave me a chance to make sure I ‘liked’ this video„ and then complain to you and ‘them’ that “they” are really THAT petty
People who say America isn’t a RACIST NATION? Have only seen it from one side.
Young colors boys. Well they still DEFEATED old white Italy 🇮🇹 and Defeated old losers that lost of old Romania
To all Tuskegee Men thanks to your service n May your souls Rest In Peace for those who we oredy lost on battlefield
What an iconic group of African Americans. Their actions made history.
They underestimate us, and we still shine through as being exceptional even till this day.
As a Fellow U.S. Airman in 2024 I Salute you Gentlemen, and your beautiful Families! I so wish i could have served alongside you in battle, but my heart fights with you always! Stand strong! 🙏 😊
Hero’s all! Thank you for your service! I salute to all Tuskegee Air Men!
20 years ago I walked into a post office in a little town in Nj…as I walked in, I noticed an elderly gentleman walking up behind me…he had white hair and the bluest eyes ive ever seen. He thanked me for holding the door…We began to talk, his name was James Hilton, he was one of the original Tuskegee airmen. He passed away just weeks after I met him. A true warrior.
Thank you for your service🙏
So many gratitude for so many… and the reality of the associations of the word Tuskegee….
It’s also true… better and the nascent ways people treat the work of better… the minimizing…
It wasn’t all white who got us here today! God Bless America, red, white and the blue is really the color black, thank you Jesus that I am not colored blind, we all bleed red, have the same number of bones and are hearts all beat until we breathe our last breath. Much love to America from me 2you❤😊😇♥️🤎💛💜💙🖤💖🤍💚❤️🖤🤎💛💕😘😍
