  • List of African-American Medal of Honor Recipients 1 List of African-American Medal of Honor Recipients
    List of African-American Medal of Honor recipients 1 List of African-American Medal of Honor recipients The Medal of Honor was created during the American Civil War and is the highest military decoration presented by the United States government to a member of its armed forces. Recipients must have distinguished themselves at the risk of their own life above and beyond the call of duty in action against an enemy of the United States. Because of the nature of this medal, it is commonly presented posthumously.[1] Of the 3,464 Medals of Honor awarded as of June 2009, 88 have been awarded to 87 different African American recipients.[2] Robert Augustus Sweeney is one of nineteen men, and the only African American, to have been awarded two Medals of Honor.[3] A 1993 study commissioned by the Army investigated racial discrimination in the awarding of medals.[4] At the time, no Medals of Honor had been awarded to black soldiers who served in World War II. After an exhaustive review of files, the study recommended that several black Distinguished Service Cross recipients be upgraded to the Medal of Honor. On January 13, 1997, President Bill Clinton awarded the Medal to seven African American World War II veterans; of these, only Vernon Baker was still alive.[4] Civil War Twenty-five African Americans earned the Medal of Honor during the American Civil War, including seven sailors of the Union Navy, fifteen soldiers of the United States Colored Troops, and three soldiers of other Army units.[2] Fourteen African American men earned the Medal for actions in the Battle of Chaffin's Farm, where a division of U.S.

  • Citizen Archivist Project
    Gallegos 1 Samantha Gallegos Dr. Jaime Cantrell Advanced American Literature 16 April 2021 CITIZEN ARCHIVIST PROJECT [email protected] English and History Double Major Introducing Tyler Garney, Coordinator of New Student Transitioning Programs. Currently, Tyler is my employer through the First Year Experience (FYE) program in Texas A&M University - Texarkana. We have worked together for about two years now and I personally selected him for this project because of previous, delightful conversations related to similar interests and for his earnest investment in learning something new. Gallegos 2 Prior to beginning this project, I felt languid and almost disinterested in diving into archival work, which is admittedly strange even to myself. I am positive that, in all honesty, it had to do with the fact it would be related to American literature but knew if I found something which could strike my specific interests, all would be well. To the truest extent, my languish came upon the “Approved Pension File for Private Powhatan Beaty,” and sparked a light in my mind I could then turn into the potential I needed to appreciate this project. The conversation opened with enlightening Tyler on the synopsis of the assignment as well as assuring him this was in no way an interview, only a moment’s discussion that may interest him and he may be comfortable with asking any questions that came to mind. To the best of my apprehension, I explained the purpose of the Archives, prompting Tyler to ask the same question which had come to my mind upon meeting Meredith and Suzanne from the U.S.

The war was tragic and transformational. Over 620,000 Americans died and millions more were wounded. Yet it also resulted in the freedom of over 4 million slaves. These and other transformational changes have gripped Americans from the end of the war to the present. With the approach of the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, also called the Sesquicentennial, it is believed that interest in the Civil War will grow. Markers, monuments, sites, and structures will become popular resources through which to analyze, commemorate, and educate about the Civil War.
