Confederates of Color

This manuscript has been compiled for one purpose only; to honor those brave and loyal African~American individuals who in reality did in fact fight and sometimes die for the land they loved and people they regarded as their friends and family; the American south and its people. Many historians have chosen to ignore those individuals and have tried to write them out of the history books, to deny them their heritage and to convince the world they never existed. The problem with their misinformation, however, is that
United States Federal documents do in fact acknowledge their existence, their service to the southern states, their Confederate Regiments and their membership and participation in numerous Confederate Reunions after the war ended.
