Summary:
This documentary examines the racial and gender policies that defined the status of African-American Women in the military during World War II. Interviews and primary sources reveal the unique experience of being an African-American woman in the military during this period. The story of these inspiring women, from the struggles they faced to they triumphs they accomplished, is one rarely discussed in American history, but one which should not be overlooked.
