Let Us Fight As Free Men: Black Soldiers and Civil Rights - Politics and Culture in Modern America
Christine Knauer
Let Us Die as Free Men explores the African American fight for the desegregation of the American military between the Second World War and the Korean War. The book credits black soldiers and civilian efforts, more than Truman's executive order, for achieving integration in the context of the Cold War.
