Zion Baptist Church and Allen Temple Are in the Midst of a Prosperous Revival • OUR COLORED CITIZENS. -Zion Baptist Church and Allen Temple are in the midst of a prosperous revival. The Imeetings at the Temple are being conducted by the Rev. John G. Mitcbell. D.D., and at Zion Church by Rev. Henry Robinson, a noted speaker from Richmond, Va. The music at these meetings is of the genuine Christian char­ acter, and is truly beautiful. -Mr. William Copeland, of the Eighteenth Ward, and one of Cincinnati's staunc\lest col­ ored Republicans, was united in holy wedlock last Tuesday evenin~ to' the, charming and In­ tellectual Mjss lvanora Lindsay. The affah, while exceedingly brilliant in all its points, was not heralded, as no cardS were sent and ollly immediate frieuds were invited. Sweet William is at last a benedict. -Colored Republicans are gratified at tbe action of tbe Lincoin Club Directory in their reelection of Sergeant Powhatan Beaty to serve for anothel' year as their Superintendent. ' Mr. Beaty is an ideal man and worthy of the most implicit confidence. He has in preparation "Othello," to be played for the benefit of a colored soldiers' National monument, and his first rehearsal of all the cast is to take place at his residence on Harrison street next l!'riday nigh t. In this ef'fol't he is to be supported by the best colored talent in the countrv. includ­ ing the tra!!;edienne, Miss Henrietta-V. Davis. -We thought that with the "lost cause" died all Sucll vindictive charactp.rs as Blanton Duncan, of Mississippi, but to our disgust one character remains to voice the falseboods and aspersions of a blinded and prej udiced Allleri­ can idea against onr race. Duncan's open let­ ter, touching our race, to Senator-elect Daniel, of VirgInia, is nothing more 1101' less than a t.wo-cotumn fonl outrage upon a people "zeal­ ous yet modest, innocent though free," and who are at.least entitled to deCeI)t comment. -One of the events ef the week was a select social tendered Miss Fannie Anderson, of De­ troit, on Friday evening at the residence of Mrs. Rebecca'l'odd, 183 Wade street. The fol- 10Wlllg ladies and gentlemen were particularly noticed: Miss Carrie Price, Miss Ida Gray, Miss Sarah Cole, :Misses Jennie and Annie Todd and Mrs. Ford Stith, nee Todd, Dr. Eugene Cox, 'Vm. Fielding, Arthur Turner, Joseph Taylor, Horace Oulds, Geo. O. Bannon. -Bishop Shorter. who resides at Wilber­ force, Greene County, this State, and in control of tbe Sou thern A. M. E. District, was barred ont of the Bethel A. M. E. Clhurch in Colum­ hia, S. U., last week. This church has the largest congregation in the State, but the mem­ bers are divided into two factious. The trus­ tee8 bave locked, bolted and nailed the doors. -It is very encouraging to know that the merits of the colored clerks of departments at Washington are being recognized. The Secre­ tary of the Treasury made an Ol'derlast montb, aDPointing a Board to examine the vaults and safes of the Register of the Treasury, and of the ,three appomted one wa5 a gentleman of color, J.

  • 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.
